The Primary 7s had great fun last week walking 6K round Strathclyde Park in aid of St. Andrew’s Hospice. The sun was shining brightly. It was a fabulous day enjoyed by everyone. Everyone was exhausted by the time they got back to school! The pupils were excellent and repreented the school beautifully. Well done boys and girls!! Please encourage your child to bring in the sponsor money for this great cause as soon as possible. Thank you for your support and generosity.
Our PTA would like me to inform you that the final sum raised on Saturday was an astonishing £1,970. An astonishing figure. A huge big thank you to everyone for their hard work and to all who came along and supported our summer fair. Another very successful fundraising event by our wonderful PTA. Thank you ladies.
Room 14 are busy in class presenting their solo talks on their interests. Here we have a few pictures depicting talks on karate and New York. Great work boys and girls!
Saturday was a fabulous day that saw the school community come together for our annual summer fair. It was great to see our Summer Fair take place in brilliant sunshine with everyone enjoying themselves. Our fabulous PTA really did us proud and raised the astonishing sum of £1,850 for PTA funds. That was an amazing sum and we would like to extend our sincere thanks to the PTA, to school staff and to all the parents, grandparents and children who came along to support the school. Our slideshow below captures the great day that was had by all!!
David, from Bug Life took the classes an adventure last week to find lots of bugs in our local area and raise the awareness of meadows for our invertebrates and other wildlife.
The children found snails, butterflies, beetles, worms, bees, spiders, earwigs, ants and caterpillars. They even saw bunny rabbits too! The children had a look at the bugs in the bug catchers then put them gently back in their home.
The children told David about our work on Mini Beasts and showed him our very own Bug Hotel in our school garden, he was very impressed!
Everyone had fabulous fun in the sun!
The boys and girls of Room 14 were busy last week making dough and them making moulds and decorating their creations to sell at the fair. Great team work!
The boys and girls of Room 14 have been busy over the last few weeks gathering information about the solar system to present as a solo talk. Here is one of the pupils showing off her finished product.
A reminder that all Pr. 4 pupils who recently received their First Holy Communion are invited to attend the Corpus Chrisi Procession that will proceed from the Church Hall to the Church on Sunday afternoon at 4.00pm. All children are invited to attend in their First Communion clothes. We look forward to seeing you there.
We hope you enjoy the holiday weekend. Our fingers are crossed that the sun shines for everyone!
