P1S Scottish Coffee Morning

We had a lovely start to the day today here at Rochsolloch Primary School as the children of P1S invited their families in to enjoy a Scottish themed coffee morning!

The children sang some lovely Scottish songs, danced and recited poetry for their adoring public, before joining their families for tea, coffee, juice and biscuits. We also learned about what makes our girls and boys proud to be Scottish.

The morning was rounded off with some prize bingo, with two lucky winners taking a delicious prize home this afternoon!

Thank you so much to all of the families who turned out to make this a memorable experience for the children, and for the lovely feedback which will be shared with the class.

Finally, a huge well done to Miss Clerkson, Mrs Fraser, Mrs Morisson, and all of our little Scottish stars in P1S!

Scottish Assembly

As you will know, our pupils have recently been learning Scots poetry in class and at home as part of our annual Scottish Verse Speaking Competition. Today, we held our Scottish Assembly, where our pupils who had finished 1st, 2nd or 3rd in their class were presented with certificates in front of the whole school and invited guests.

Our competition winners performed their poems on stage to a jam-packed gym hall, and they were absolutely superb. Following the wonderful poetry recital, we were treated to a highland sword dance by two of our pupils, which was spectacular!

Congratulations to all of our winner, and to every pupil who competed in our Verse Speaking Competition – the standard of the performances was higher than ever!

Many thanks as well to all of our families who supported their children at home, taking the time to practice and get all of those tricky words just right!
