Humph the Camel!

Gallery

Over the past couple of months, our P1-P3 children and teachers have been working round the clock to prepare a wonderful Christmas show – Humph the Camel! Having performed a dress-rehearsal for school pupils yesterday, our little stars took to the stage to put on a fantastic showcase of acting, singing and dancing for parents and friends this morning.

The show was a huge success and our children and staff are looking forward to taking to the stage again at 6.30pm tonight for their evening performance! The morning performance was wonderful, and we are so proud of our Rochsolloch family today.

Our show has been filmed this year, and DVDs can be purchased from the school, at a cost of £5.  DVDs will be ready in early January.

Our resident photographer, Mrs Cochrane, has taken these terrific snaps!

P3/4 and P4/5 Visit Five Sisters Zoo

Gallery

Recently, P4/5 and P3/4 got together for a terrific educational excursion to the Five Sisters Zoo. The children were amazed to learn that many of the animals at the zoo have been rescued from performing in circuses.

Have a peek at our gallery to see the children enjoying seeing the animals, learning about minibeast identification, and enjoying a post-lunch play at the swing park!

Boxing Taster Sessions

It certainly was a busy day at Rochsolloch Primary School yesterday!

We were visited by Mark McGuinness, from Ecosse Boxing Club. Martin is a former Commonwealth boxing coach, and he joined us to share some of his expertise with our children.

After speaking to the whole school at assembly, Mark took some classes for individual sessions, where he taught the children about the sport and gave them a chance to try it out.

P3/4 Titanic Assembly

Gallery

Yesterday, P3/4 presented a terrific assembly, all about The Titanic.

The rain was so heavy that some of our guests may have needed a boat to get to the performance…but the hall was as busy as ever and the children did themselves proud as they wowed us with all of the knowledge they have built during their topic studies.

During the performance, we saw and heard about:

  • The five BIG QUESTIONS the class investigated
  • Some terrific folk dancing
  • Interesting information about the boat and its cabins
  • Two beautiful songs
  • Some absolutely incredible costumes
  • Confident speaking

We would like to say a huge well done to P3/4 and Miss Allan for presenting such an interesting and unique assembly! Thanks also to parents and carers for turning the children out so magnificently in their uniforms and costumes, and for helping the pupils with the wonderful homework projects they produced!

Special Visitors

Each month, we focus on one of the ‘SHANARRI Indicators.’  This month, we have focused on ‘SAFE’ and our pupils have been learning a lot in class and at Assembly about keeping safe.

During some Pupil Consultation, our children asked for a visit from our local fire service.  Mrs McCulloch organised this for our pupils and last week three terrific firefighters, Tony, Liz and Willie, came to speak to the whole school at Assembly, where they explained the finer details of their jobs, and also answered questions our classes had prepared for them.

The fire engine was parked in our school playground so that all of our pupils could have a closer look, with a few lucky classes getting a full tour!

We were delighted to welcome these special visitors to our school and Mrs McCulloch was over the moon to receive an e-mail from our visitors who praised our children’s behaviour and manners, while also saying that they were made to feel like celebrities while visiting RPS!

Thank you so much for paying us a visit…we’ll see you again soon!
