St Bartholomew's Class Blog

Primary 6 and 7 were delighted today at a very special delivery!

We received brand new football strips which can be used in all sporting events. The strips have been specially designed by David our coach and Joshua Cappie, the sponsor of our strips. Both men have worked hard for these amazing strips. They have the school colours black and red and of course the fabulous school badge.
Joshua is a former pupil here at St Bartholomew’s and remembers fondly his time  at our school. Joshua has went on to run his own family business with his dad and we are mega proud of him.
We appreciate Joshua paying for our new strips and also to David who got the printing done.We can see a lot  of money has been spent on these as they are fabulous quality.

Thank you Joshua and of course David!
We will try to score a goal for you! ❤️🖤

Here are our gorgeous Koalas in our big tree!
We had so much fun doing these.

The children are so proud of their excellent art work!

We are mega excited because not only did we win Cool Class Cup today, for the second week in a row, we also won the Attendance award! A treat will be awarded to all children tomorrow as we gather together and make S’mores.

Sometimes it is just nice to sit and chill and read in a comfy wee spot. Our hard working girls were delighted to get time in the class Book Nook today. A nice reward for excellent, hard work. 👏

The sun was shining for us today as we were practising for Gaelic football. We are getting so much better at doing a solo, passing and kicking the ball high over the goals for a point. Joe congratulated all children with their improvement in all skills. Well done everyone!

We have been learning all about the amazing Steve Irwin on the anniversary of his death. The children carried out excellent research at home and brought their facts into share with others.
We used statistics from his research in our numbers talks to explore addition and subtraction. We also decided to make our own Koala bears. We were concerned to hear about the Koala bear numbers dropping through disease and fires. We will explore this further when we look at Climate change next term.
We are so proud of how they turned out and we will put them on a wall display outside our room.

Last Thursday, the President of Ireland came to Coatbridge!

She wanted to see how we take part in Gaelic football here in Scotland! Two of our boys were selected to show her how it’s done! She absolutely loved our boys and was engaged in great conversations with them. We are so proud of our children who represented us with excellence!
Well done boys!

We went out yesterday for some outdoor learning. we had great fun on the bikes and scooters! 

This week we have been learning how to be a Junior Sports Leader. After training from the wonderful Jordann at Active sports, we worked together to plan and deliver games to our peers and even to primary one! We loved the challenge and cannot wait to take it to the next level.
