The school is delighted to announce that for the second year running our team of gymnasts who attended the North Lanarkshire Gymnastic Championship at Airdrie Academy were a winning bunch. Everyone was absolutely tremendous and were a real credit to the school. Great team work was on display that lead to first and second placings with outstanding individual performances that lead to individual medals. Quite an accomplishment! Great work St.Augustine’s Gymnastic Team, the whole school is so proud of you.
Pr.7 Burns Supper
Our fantastic Pr.7 pupils hosted a Burns Supper on Wednesday. They gave a very informative presentation about the life of Rabbie Burns, sang, recited poetry and performed some drama. Then it was off to serve their invited guests with a plate of haggis, neeps and tatties made by our wonderful catering staff. Many thanks to Mrs.McKeown and the catering team. It was an excellent afternoon with our Pr.7 pupils really shining. They were a real credit to Mrs.Drummond and Mrs.Fraser. Great work boys and girls.
Communications Team
Our Infant Communication Team learned about the work of Rabbie Burns. They made information posters and treated the infant classes to a rendition My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose. Here is their slide show and hopefully we have managed to upload a short video clip. The upload is upside down (I couldn’t change it) so apologies if you are trying to view on a laptop.
