P2/1 celebrate 50 years of LPS!

This  week we have enjoyed lots of birthday celebrations including sharing our learning about 1967 – the year our school opened at Preston Road.  Thank you very much to everyone who came along on Wednesday evening and well done to the tour guides who certainly seemed to have learned lots!

Today the children looked fantastic in their 1960s costumes. They enjoyed the 1960s disco which was organised by P7a.  The class did not go together today but with their P1 or P2 peer group which they seemed to enjoy.

After a very busy day we enjoyed some ginger beer (a favourite of Enid Blyton!) and a little piece of Mr Kipling cake ( first sold in 19671) to toast “Happy 50th Birthday!” to Linlithgow Primary School.

 

Tigers make it to George Allan Final

The annual George Allan Football tournament took place on Sunday the 21st of May. Our Linlithgow Tigers managed to win all but one game giving them a chance at the title in the final against Linlithgow Bridge Primary. Linlithgow Bridge stole a goal and despite all efforts the Tigers could just not equalise. It was a valiant effort by all. Well done Tigers. If you want to watch the highlights of the game please follow link below.

In the other League our Leopards dominated many games but were unable to secure a victory over Springfield, narrowly missing out a spot in the final.

Well done to both teams. They are now preparing for the next local competition which will be the Round Table Football Festival on the 4th of June which will take place at the Leisure Centre on the new 3G astro turf pitch.
