Keeping fit

Leave a comment

We have been working on building up stamina and our fitness levels in P.E.

We have completed various exercises stations, which include ball punches, bench hops, skipping, shuttle runs, jumping jacks, sit ups, press ups and much more. We completed each station for 1 minute and rested for 1 minute in between to help our bodies recover.

We found it very hard but we know that if we persevere then our fitness levels will improve.

Primary 6/5 collages

1 Comment

Primary 6/5 have made an excellent start to the year. We have completed two challenges in small teams to help us develope skills for life. We’ll be taking on more challenges throughout the year.

We have taken part in a local art competition. We had to make collages linked to the theme “flying”. We had lots of ideas and enjoyed working with different types of paper to create our own artwork. We hope we’re successful and win

Girls Football Team

Leave a comment

The Greenrigg  Girls Football team played their first game tonight against Livingston Village. The sun was shining and the girls said they had great fun. They didn’t even mind that we got beat 5-0 never mind girls, you were great and full of team spirit. Thank you to Donna Sanderson for volunteering her time to come with me on the bus, the girls and I really appreciate your help and fantastic cheering us on! Thank you to the Livingston Village girls and their coach for the hospitality and refreshments, we will hopefully see you again.

Ellie McDougall was named woman of the match for her excellent work as first striker, then defender and then a fantastic goalkeeper – those were some impressive saves Ellie. Our Greenrigg Girls have no fear.

We are all proud of you

Playmaker Award – JASCs

Leave a comment

The JASCs (Junior Active Schools Co-ordinators) took part in training last week with Ben Boatman and pupils from Stoneyburn. The training is called the Playmaker Award. This is a leadership course to promote confidence and leadership within the school.

Our JASCs

nov 2014 001 nov 2014 002 nov 2014 003 nov 2014 004 nov 2014 005 nov 2014 006

 

They loved the training, Ellie said it gave her confidence, Elise said she learned how to encourage others and Ryan enjoyed taking part in all the competitive games.

The JASCs have some challenges to undertake in school over the next few terms, amazing opportunities such as:

  • Leading warm ups and small sessions during their class and other classes PE lessons
  • Helping to run after school club sporting sessions
  • officiate games
  • lead activities in the playground
  • lead or help out at a sports day/health week  event
  • attending sports committee meetings and making suggestions and implementing changes to ensure pupils are engaging in sporting success

Well done boys and girls we had excellent feedback from Miss Benson on your fabulous effort and sportsmanship, Elise Hastie in particular received praise for her game she created and how she delivered it to the group.

Thank you to Ben Boatman for this opportunity it is a truly fantastic opportunity for the school and our staff couldn’t be prouder of the JASCs.

Staff Netball League

Leave a comment

A huge congratulations to the ladies of Greenrigg Primary who took part in the first staff netball league. Although two teams only participated we had a lot of fun (which of course resulted in aches and pains). We played Polkemmet Primary School at Whitburn Community Center this week.

Congratualtions to Polkemmet on their victory and we will see them again next term (or we will dress pupils up like us)

Well done to Mrs Croser (and her goals), Mrs Bradley, Mrs Woodhouse, Mrs Crow, Mrs Berginis, Mrs Monahan and Mrs Millar (who fore-fitted her high heels for trainers to be part of the team, very impressive!)

Football Festival

Leave a comment

I would like to say a massive congratulation to our school football team. I was so proud of how they played at the festival today. All the team worked together to make sure they were passing the ball and holding their positions. We were undefeated in our games and we drew all the way today with Stoneyburn but were beaten in our final game 1-0, therefore we came second in the league table. Thank you to Ben Boatman for refereeing and the fantastic silver medals. We have really enjoyed being part of the football festival.

Mrs Monahan

Greenrigg did themselves proud all season. Congratulations to Stoneyburn who won and congratulations to Longridge who play an excellent game of football.
