Money Workshops

Yesterday in the school we had some volunteers from Barclays who were out working with the children in all the classes.  The volunteers were delivering money workshops and the children all enjoyed themselves learning about maths in a real life context.  It was a great way for the children to learn some financial education.  The volunteers passed on their thanks to the school for making them so welcome and they were very impressed with the behaviour and maturity of the children.  Well done boys and girls!

Rebecca Adlington Visit

What a special day it was on Wednesday. We were invited to host a visit from Olympic Gold Medalist swimmer Rebecca Adlington. She was visiting Lanarkshire as part of her new swimming scheme and as a Commonwealth Games ambassador.

The children were all very excited in the lead up to her visit. Many of the classes prepared questions to ask her. The questions were quite thoughtful and Rebecca was able to give lots of information about her life as a competitive swimmer.

It was truly a special occasion, one that we will remember for a long time.

Golden Day 2013

Our pupils thoroughly enjoyed the annual Golden Day to celebrate their excellent behaviour throughout the year.  Children who had earned their gold award took part all day, silver children joined in from interval and bronze pupils enjoyed the afternoon activity.

We had a whole range of activities in the morning:

  • Face-painting, tattoos, hairspray and nail bar.
  • Cake decorating
  • iPad games
  • Giant outdoor games and the assault course
  • Birds of Prey display.

In the afternoon, we were entertained by a fabulous production of the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.  Well done to all of the children who followed the Golden Rules this year to earn their certificate.
