Sumdog’s West Lothian Maths Contest

A huge well done to all the children in Primary 5-7 that took part in Sumdog’s West Lothian Maths Contest last week. Each person that contributed was to answer 1000 questions on a variety of topics within maths and were then ranked based on how many questions they answered correctly. Out of the 743 children that took part, Mid Calder had 10 pupils in the top 50! A fantastic achievement, and a brilliant opportunity to build upon your mental maths skills. Congratulations! 

Linhouse Movie Star Party

Today Linhouse celebrated winning the Term 1 house cup by organising a movie themed party. Everyone in the house dressed up as a character from the movie and had a celebration in the hall, which included games, dancing, a chocolate fountain and crushed ice drinks. A big well done to Callum and Romany for organising the party, and to the P7 helpers who helped served the food and organise the games. Also a big thank you to Mrs Bokhari who helped serve the food tidy up after.

Congratulations to Linhouse!

P7 Sports Festival

This week all the P7’s took part in the annual Sports Festival at East Calder Sports Centre. Over the past few weeks we have been practicing the skills involved in the various activities with Mrs Mitchell. The activities that we took part in at the festival were the javelin, time 2 lap-run, speed bounce and standing long, which we were scored in. There were also another 2 activities, one to test our endurance and one to test our balance. All P7’s who participated gave 100% and did extremely well on the day. Hopefully we will get the results soon. P7 hope everyone has a fantastic and safe holiday. See you all soon PTDC0458 PTDC0414 PTDC0429 PTDC0444
