We were visited today by a very special guest!<\/p>\n
This month, our SHANARRI focus is ‘Achieving’ and to support our understanding of this concept, we were privileged to welcome Eilish McColgan to Rochsolloch Primary today. \u00a0Eilish is a Scottish record holder and British Champion distance runner. \u00a0She has also represented Scotland at 6 Commonwealth games, as well as Great Britain at 6 European Championships and 2 Olympic Games!<\/p>\n\n
Eilish taught us a lot about hard work and dedication. She explained that although she loved running as a child, she didn’t win her first race until she was 18! Obviously her hard work paid off! Eilish encouraged our boys and girls to dream big and to never give up, which is a wonderfully positive message! Eilish also explained how taking part in sport was a great way to meet new people, and she showed us photos she had taken with two of the world’s most famous athletes: Usain Bolt and Mo Farah! Cool or what!?<\/p>\n
We were delighted to welcome you into our school today Eilish, and we will be cheering for you at the next big competition!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
