Well, it’s back to school for everyone tomorrow (Wed 14th Aug).
Excited?
Looking forward to seeing you all and hearing all about your summer adventures.
Can’t wait to see all our new P1s who are starting at 9.30 tomorrow.
Good luck to any of our former P7s who are starting S1 and checking into the blog.
Let the fun begin!
Mr B
Well everyone, we’re officially back tomorrow preparing for the new term (although most of us have been in already over the holidays).
Looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday for the first full day. Everyone always looks so smart on the first day back!
Enjoy your last two days off.
Well everyone, today’s the last day of July (and what a lovely July it has been).
And it is also two weeks today until you all return to school.
Enjoy the last bit of your summer hols and see you soon.
Well done to Andy Murray on his victory at Wimbledon. First British man to win Wimbledon for 77 years!
He was brilliant. Did any of you see it? Leave a comment here about it and we’ll gather them all together for the sports wall at school. I think it should be celebrated!
Well everyone, it’s summer time and it’s time for everyone to recharge their batteries. I hope you all have a great summer break. Have a great holiday if you are going away anywhere or enjoy relaxing at home if that’s the plan.
Well done to everyone for their hard work this year, for their participation in all of our brilliant after school clubs, for the fabulous drama show, Grease, a great sports day and every other achievement throughout the session.
A personal thank you to all of the members of the pupil council who have done such a brilliant job this year. I tried to get you all together for one more meeting but it proved impossible to get you all in one place together, with sports days, trips, P7 graduation and classes off to the park! I will speak to you all on your return in August as we look for a smooth transition over to the new council (of course some of you may well be re-elected).
Farewell to our P7s. I wish you the best of luck for your move to high school, and you know you can always contact me through the blog or via email to let me know how you’re doing or if you need me to help you with anything. You’ve been a great P7 year group and you will be missed.
Have a brilliant summer everyone and I’ll see those of you coming back to Hallside on the 14th August!
Mr B
Well done to all of the pupils, staff and parents who played in the Staff/Parents v Pupils football challenge today. Four epic matches ended with a victory for the adults (again!).
Thank you to all the adult ‘volunteers’ who took part in the 2 hour football marathon. I hope you had as much fun as I did!
Well done to our P6 entrants in the South Lanarkshire Athletics Finals held today, especially to Russell Menzies who finished in the top 5, and Morgan Hannah who finished in the top 10 in their respective events.
Austin Sime, P5b and Andrew Rushbury, with trophies awarded when they travelled with their football team, Drumsagard Boys Club, to play in a tournament in Holland. They also have a pennant, like the ones that their team gave to the opposition, and a ribbon given to them by their opposing players.
Well done Austin and Andrew.
Cameron Howie, of P4b, proudly holding a copy of ‘The Simpsons’ magazine, with a certificate showing that he has had one of his drawing published in that edition.
What a brilliant achievement (Mr Bamford and Mr Hamilton were particularly impressed/jealous!).
Well done Cameron.
Abbie Powell, of P4b, proudly sporting her team gymnastics medal. All the training paid off!
Well done Abbie.
