P5 Display of Knowledge

Today, our P5 pupils were joined by their families as they presented a Display of Knowledge! Our children aimed to give their families a snapshot of the learning that has been taking place in the class over the past term!

Thank you so much to everyone who came along to support our children, and for the lovely feedback given to our pupils!

P5 and P5/6 Science Centre Visit!

P5 and P5/6 had an awesome time at the Glasgow Science Centre today!

P5 have been learning about How the World Works, while P5/6 have been learning about Space.

The children visited all three floors of the Science Mall for some hands-on fun, pictured below! The children also went to the Planetarium for an excellent Space presentation – there was so much learning happening!

Let’s not forget that the day was topped off by a trip to the Gift Shop – the most important aspect of any school trip!

P5 World of Work Assembly

This morning, P5 presented our last class assembly of the year to pupils, parents and friends. The assembly was all about the World of Work, which has been a big focus for our P5 pupils this session. Preparing pupils for life in the real world is such an important part of the job we do at Rochsolloch Primary School!

Our P5 pupils spoke confidently about their studies in class, sharing a great deal of what they have learned about life as a working person, including the skills and qualities they might need to be successful in their chosen career.

P5, we especially enjoyed:

* Learning which jobs you’d like to do when you’re older

* Hearing your singing – which was terrific

* Watching your excellent dancing

* The Incy Wincy Spider drama song

As always, the children were a credit to their class teacher, their families, and our school. We would like to thank P5 and Mrs Munoz for putting on such an excellent performance, as well as our parents and families who helped to turn the class out in such fantastic costumes!

Digital Literacy Investment

As part of our School Improvement Plan, we have been looking to develop ‘Digital Literacy.’ With this in mind, we have invested in 24 brand new HP laptops, which will be used by all pupils in the school during the school year. In order to do this, we’ve combined some of our school budget with money raised by our Parent Council.

Take a look at these effective contributors from P5, who helped to ‘set-up’ and test our new laptops on Friday afternoon.

P5 and P5/6 Glasgow Gurdwara Visit

The following post was written by the pupils of P5:

P5 and P5/6 went to the Gurdwara on Wednesday morning last week with Mrs Munoz and Miss Rangeley. The children went to the Gurdwara to learn about Sikhism. Mr Singh and Mrs Kaur came to Rochsolloch Primary to teach the school about their religion. We decided to go so that we could find out more! We also thought that since Mr Singh and Mrs Kaur travelled to see us, we should travel to see them!

When we arrived we had to take off our shoes, put on turbans and wash our hands. People do this in the Gurdwara as a sign of respect to god.  We were taken upstairs and we were fortunate enough to hear some readings from the holy scriptures. We also learned a bit more about the ‘Five Ks’ of Sikhism and we had another shot of the musical instruments we got to play when Mr Singh and Mrs Kaur visited our class.

Our hosts were willing to share with us some traditional food including: spicy naan bread and mango juice, and our teachers were even given some vegetable pakora and chickpea curry!

We really enjoyed ourselves because we were made to feel very welcome and as you can see from the pictures we had a lot of fun! Thanks to Mrs Grimson and Mrs Lawrie for accompanying us on our trip!

P5 Morrisons Visit

On Tuesday 25th of October, Primary 5 and Mrs Munoz visited Morrisons as part of our ‘Healthy’ focus month.  The children had an absolute blast as they were given a magnificent tour by members of staff.

The pupils visited numerous departments of the store, including the fishmonger, cheese counter and bakery.  The children were even given the chance to scan some items through the tills!

Following the visit, P5 wrote letters of thanks to the Morissons staff with Mr Innes. From reading the letters, it was very clear that the pupils very much enjoyed their visit, learning a great deal in the process!
