School Sports 2018

This morning we had our annual School Sports Day, bathed in glorious sunshine! Mr Griffin and Primary 7 have been working hard over the last few weeks to get everything ready for our young athletes. Our children were split into house teams and they rotated around eight different events:

* relay

* hocket dribble

* rugby run and throw

* netball shoot

* boccia bowls

* basketball

* tennis

* obstacle course

We finished off the event with a fun parents’ race…and our parents weren’t competitive at all!

Our children had a great morning, and were suitably exhausted when they returned to their classes!

Thank you so much to Mr Griffin and P7 for doing such a wonderful job, and to our guests who turned out in such great numbers to support the children. Thank you also for the wonderful feedback given to our staff and pupils after the event!

Nursery Sports 2017

On Thursday last week, we held our annual nursery class sports day!

Take a look at the gallery to see our little athletes running, jumping and throwing – and generally having a great time!

We’d like to say a huge thank you to Mr Griffin and our P6 pupils for helping our wonderful nursery staff organise such a great day for the children. We’d also like to give a special mention to our superhero family members for being such good sports in the adult race!

Rio comes to Rochsolloch!

Today, P1-P7 took part in an Olympic-themed Potted Sports Day.  The children worked in House Teams, with each team representing a different Olympic Nation.  Some of the events the children were involved in were:

  • Hurdles
  • Basketball Dribble
  • Tennis
  • Rugby Shuttles
  • Obstacle Course
  • Golf Chipping
  • Team Relays

As a bit of fun for the pupils who had worked so hard, the event concluded with a Teachers’ Relay and Parents’ Obstacle Relay, much to the delight of the children.

We would like to thank all of the parents who came to cheer on the young athletes, as well as the children and staff who worked so hard to make the event a success.  We would also like to say a special thank you to Mr Griffin and P6 who have worked tirelessly to make our Sports Day a memorable one!  We’re already looking forward to next year’s!

Sports Day Fun in the Sun

The sight of the summer sun has been a welcome one over the past few weeks, and we were delighted that the sun shone on us again for the Nursery Class Sports Day this week.  Have a look through our photos and you can see just how much our children enjoyed the day, as well as how active they were!  It was wonderful to see so many adults come along to cheer on the children, and to join in the fun during the Mums’ Race and Dads’ Race!

The Sports Day allows our P6 pupils and Nursery Class children the chance to work together, strengthening bonds between our school pupils and our pre-school group before they come together as Buddies at the beginning of the new school session.

Mrs McCulloch would like to say an enormous thank you to Mr Griffin and P6 for organising and running the event, to the Nursery staff, to the visitors who came along to watch and of course, most importantly, to the children for giving it their all!

Mrs McCulloch would also like to thank John Wilson photography for taking the official photographs on the day, which will be added to the website in the near future.

What a great day!
