Euro Quiz, Third Place

Well done to our team of P6s who went off to represent the school at the South Lanarkshire Euro Quiz.  They did superbly well and finished third with a score of 48 (just one point behind second place and further point behind first).

The team consisted of Abbey and Ellie Rochford, Shaw Laird and Ross Taylor.

Well done.

Pudsey Visits Hallside

Pudsey and his friends from Greggs visited Hallside today to present our two winners with their Pudsey cakes on which their designs had been printed.

Here are Ryan Gregson (P4a) and Reuben Scott (P2a) with Isobel from Greggs and, of course, Pudsey!

Whole School Photo

As you may have noticed we had a grandstand built in the playground on Thursday to have our whole school photograph taken.  It was great fun to do and the photogrpaher, Keith, was immensely impressed with the behaviour, attitude and patience of the pupils as he put together a photograph with over 570 people in it!!!

Here is a taster of what it will look like as we were still getting children into position.
