Girls Lift the Cup
The girls team stunned Garrowhill with a brilliant 6-3 victory in the sunshine this afternoon to lift the All Girls Challenge Cup. After Hallside raced into a 2-0 lead with two goals by Courtney McGowan, Garrowhill pulled a goal back before half time to make it 2-1 in a first half that was end to end. Hallside restored their two goal advantage by going 3-1 ahead through Lauren Muir, before being pegged back again at 3-2. Hallside then piled on the pressure with Milan Graham scoring to go 4-2 ahead, then 5-2 with a strike from Lucy Rosenbloom. Garrowhill pulled it back to 5-3 and really hemmed in Hallside for the final 5 minutes. Sheree Dunsmore, the Hallside keeper, blocked a point blank effort from the Garrowhill striker to keep Hallside 2 goals ahead before Hallside scored a 6th in the dying seconds, through Milan Graham, to settle the nerves of their travelling support.
Captain Lauren Muir stepped up to receive the trophy at the end of the game and the crowd went wild. Congratulations to Heather Jackson who won player of the match. Well done girls.
Boys Defeat Calderwood
Hallside Boys Football team took a huge step towards being the first school ever to secure back to back league titles with a brilliant team display against top of the table Calderwood. Andrew Lindsay hit 5, Cameron Fulton got 3, Marco McGillivray chipped in with 2 and Jay Cowan and David Thompson grabbed one each in a 13-0 victory.

Blog Reward
I posted the message below during the week and as I mentioned at assembly today nobody said the secret word, so elephant will no longer work! I will post some other blog reward posts over the next few weeks so keep checking the blog to be the ones that win it!
“I am testing to see how many of you are still checking my blog, so here is the deal: the first pupil to secretly say the code word “elephant” to me will win their whole class extra playtime.
If this works I will try it again on another week.
Good luck.”
Talent Show Recordings Completed
We have now completed all of the audio recordings of the talent show singers. I still have some editing to do then we’ll be able share them.
Hamster Arrival
Calling all Hallside Hamster owners!
My boys, Jamie and Jude, got their first ever hamster at the weekend. She is called Georgie. If any of you have, or have had, hamsters at home and can offer us any advice, please speak to me when you see me in school or post a comment here at the blog (none of us has ever had a hamster before!). We’ve been reading up in books and on the internet but your hints, tips and experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Talent Show-The Album!
The first set of recordings of the talent show singers went really well on Friday. We’ve turned my office into a recording studio and everyone is sounding great. We only made it through P7, P7a, P6, P6a and P5a but will get the chance to record the singers from the other 4 classes on Monday.
