The Pupil Report Cards have been sent home today in the school bags. You should all be very proud of your achievements.
Have a lovely weekend.
Sports Day was a little different this year, taking part over several days, but we had a fantastic time competing in our class races. Click on the link below to find out which house team won Sports Day 2021!
A massive thank you to our amazing hosts – The House Captains!
Go Team Bishopton!
This year, sports day will be a little bit different but with the same house pride as always. Due to current regulations, we can only race in our classes and this will be done in our PE slots. No spectators are allowed.
Our wonderful house captains will be recording our class races. We will then put it all together so we can watch the races unfold and find out who has won the coveted sports day trophy. This will be shared with parents and family.
Due to the unpredictable nature of the weather, we are asking pupils to bring their house colours to school (in your school bag) every possible race day next week (Tuesday-Friday). Please do not worry if you do not have house colours, you will still race for your team. We suggest you wear casual uniform to school on these days. This will allow us to rearrange any races if the weather takes a turn for the worse.
Below is a reminder of our house colours. There is absolutely no need to buy anything new.
Falcons – Blue
Ospreys – Red
Eagles – Yellow
Hawks – Green
Good luck to all of the houses!
Go Team Bishopton!

Over 30 P7 pupils took part in the level 1 and level 2 Bike Ability training last week.
They gained practical skills and the understanding to cycle safely on today’s roads.
A big thank you to our trained staff who volunteered to provide this training after school last week.
The whole school had a fantastic performance at the Virtual Cross-Country event with an amazing 19 podium finishes! The pupils were inspired by the motivational video our Road Race Champions created and went the extra mile to complete the challenges.

Bishopton Primary took part in the first ever virtual Cross-Country event. Everyone was able to take part under the following conditions:
P1 and 2 – 10 minutes of running.
P3,4 and 5 – 12 minutes of running.
P6 and 7 -15 minutes of running.
The pupils ran around the school pitch, which is 100m long, an unbelievable 12,449 times!!!
We feel this is some achievement and it was lovely to see everyone cheering each other on. A massive thank you to our P7’s who are the current Renfrewshire Road Race champions and recorded a message to inspire our pupils. I think it did the job!
Well done everyone!
