Celebrating Success
Here are the pictures of our recent award winners. Our pictures feature the pupils who were recognised as Good Citizens, School Ambassadors, Pupil of the Week Award Winners and the pupils who were recognised for their wider achievements this week. We have a wonderful dancer showing off her award and a violinist who received recognition for his recent grading. We also have two pupils who represented the school at the recent North Lanarkshire Swimming Competition. They received a special Head Teacher Award in recognition of their outstanding achievement and success. Well done everyone!

Primary 5/6 Titanic Workshop
The boys and girls of room 13 really enjoyed their Titanic workshop today and loved sharing their knowledge.
Pr. 1 learning through Halloween
The boys and girls of Pr. 1 , Rm 1 were learning in context this week as their learning had a very Halloween theme. Here are a few pictures that capture the learning.
Pr.5 Titanic Workshop
The boys and girls of Room 15 enjoyed a full day workshop with the Titanic Outreach Team who came along with props and artifacts. The feedback from Mrs. Thomson was highly positive as she remarked on how much the children enjoyed the event. It was also a great platform for the children to share their own learning.
Roman Workshop
Room 9 and room 12 went to Summerlee museum to attend a Roman workshop. The boys and girls had a great day investigating Roman artefacts and even got to try on some togas. The children were so well behaved that they were allowed to hold a real sword and shield! Well done boys and girls.
