Game On Scotland Plaque

The Sports Committee were proud to accept a Game on Scotland plaque from our Active School Coordinator Ben Boatman. Mr Boatman nominated Greenrigg for the award for our continuing commitment to developing the legacy of the Commonwealth Games. We are now one of over 350 organisations worldwide who are entitled to display the prestigious plaque.

Below is the Sports Committee receiving their award from Mr Boatman.

Netball Festival

Well done to all the boys and girls who competed in the recent Whitburn Cluster Netball Festival. We got off to an excellent start winning 3 out of 4 of our games. The boys and girls were a credit to the school demonstrating an excellent standard of behaviour and sportsmanship. We are looking forward to our next festival in February!

School Sport Award

Meet our Junior Active Schools Coordinators-Nathan, Ellie, Ryan, Taylor, Harris and Elise. Together with Mrs Monahan, Mrs Bradley and Mr Boatman (Active Schools Coordinator) they have formed the Sports Committee and are working hard to make improvements to Physical Education in our school. This term they have been busy running a lunch time sports club for Primary 3 and 4 pupils and will be offering a sports club to Primary 1 and 2 pupils in term 3. They have also arranged for a score board to be put in the gym hall for use during class lessons and after school clubs. We will be applying for a school sport award which recognises excellence in physical education and school sport.
