Forgandenny @ The Scottish Learning Festival

Blogging for Assessment

Shannah, Caitlin, Chris (former pupil – now Perth High), Mrs Duffy and Mr Donnachie yesterday attended and presented at the Scottish Learning Festival at the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre in Glasgow. We were sharing our schools work on blogging entitled Blogging for Assessment with an international audience of over 90 delagates at the conference. In fact we were fully booked which was awesome!

 Mr Donnachie and Mrs Duffy explained the reasons for blogging at Forgandenny and the children shared there own blogs and blogging skills with the audience. Chris, Caitlin and Shannah spoke with great confidence and if they were nervous they did not show it. They were a credit to the school and we would like to say a huge thanks and well done for all their hard work.  Below are some of the pictures from the day

Summer Fayre

Forgandenny Summer Fayre

Our summer fayre was held on 26th May at the school and was a huge success. We had face painting, sold home produce, games , cream teas, bottle stalls and a whole lot more. A huge thanks to all the parents, teachers, pupils and friends of the school who came along to help set up the stalls and make the day the success it was.

Thanks again from all at Forgandenny.

Sports day pictures

We had a lovely sports day – with all the traditional races & a little bit more! The space hopper races were a great success.

Many thanks to all the parents & friends who turned out to support us and joined us for refreshments afterwards.

Congratulations to Random Runners who were our overall winners in the potted sports. Thank you Mrs Anderson for presenting our winners with their well deserved medals.

Sports Day

Sports Day is on Friday 10th June at 1.30pm at the Forgandenny field. This year will included some potted sports and class races. Refreshments (tea, coffe and juice) will be served in school after the events.

Look forward to seeing you all there on the day cheering on your children.

Orienteering finals

A huge well done to the P5-7’s who took place in the finals of the Perth and Kinross Orienteering championships at Scone today. Three teams from the school qualified for the finals following the qualifiers a few weeks ago. Today gave them the opportunity to compete against other finalists from around Perth and  although they did not win the event all the pupils had fun and completed the course in good times.

The Teams were:

Awesome Cool Kickers – Kirsten, Caitlin and Ailsa

DSJ – Donald, Struan and James

Supersonic Speeders – Amy, Joanna and Esther

Check out some of the pictures from the event.
