Vikki Atkinson our Active Sports Co-Ordinator came to visit both P7 classes on Friday to tell them all about how to become a Junior Sports Leader. Vikki was delighted at the number of pupils who expressed an interest in the training.
Training will commence shortly and we will update you on activities on offer when we have further information. Once trained our Junior Sports Leaders will run activities at lunchtime for our younger pupils.
Primary 7 (Room 8) have started the year off well by giving compliments to these two young ladies . It was lovely to hear how well they are thought of from their classmates.
We are learning about the importance of self-esteem and how we can build each other up.
P7 enjoyed their first training session with Joe Bradley. We worked on ball control and passing.
On behalf of the whole school we would like to congratulate David Harper who was Ordained as a permanent Deacon this evening at St Augustines. I’m sure anyone who attended will agree it was a lovely service.
Attention all P1 parents and carers. Please see attached details of a School Age Payment you can claim to help with the costs of starting school.
In order to support a positive learning environment for pupils and to help make the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) more prominent and relevant P7 had the opportunity today for quality discussions to take place. We discussed what makes a good class and shared the qualities we would like our teachers to have and what we need to do to be good pupils as well as what we would like included in our lessons.
By taking part in this task we encouraged lots of pupil led dialogue and got to share what is most important to us in our own classroom context. Our next steps are to agree what is most important to us – we might even vote before agreeing on our Class Charter.
Our fabulous P1 children met their P7 buddies today and got to spend some time together at break and lunchtime. Here are a few pictures – as you can see they got on brilliantly.
The whole school gathered today for our end of term assembly. We took the opportunity to review our term and celebrate some of our success over this period. Congratulations to our maths, writers and artist stars of the month. Well done everyone.
Today we awarded netball stars, football stars and received awards for attendance as well as celebrating the fact Monklands won the sports day points tally.
We are immensely proud of everyone for their hard work and commitment over the past year and wish our primary 7 children well as they go off to pastures new.
We hope everyone has a fabulous summer holiday. Keep safe everyone. We can’t wait to see you in August.
Mrs Docherty, Mrs Elliott and Mrs Drummond attended the prestigious North Lanarkshire Sport Awards this evening at the Alona Hotel as we were nominated as one of the three shortlisted schools for Primary Sport School of the Year.
We are delighted to announce we WON!!!!
Massive thank you to everyone who kindly supported our Foodbank appeal over the past few weeks in aid of Coatbridge Community Foodbank. Your support has been overwhelming, with over 30 bags of groceries and toiletries being received.
Mrs Drummond ran out of space in her car to take this donation to the Foodbank and had to enlist some help from these trusty pupils to carrry everything. In a world when you can be anything – be kind.
