After a last minute inclusion into the Commonwealth Games James has done us proud and won a bronze medal in his sport of Judo. He was a big inspiration last term and encouraged the pupils in the upper school to set themselves goals they could work towards. It is super to see him realising his own goal of a Commonwealth Medal!
The sun shone as Mrs Paterson proudly carried the Baton through Whitburn High Street on Sunday.It was super to see so many staff ,parents ,grandparents and pupils all coming along to support Mrs Paterson.
This week in P5/6 we have been creating and designing some paisley patterns,looking at Mendhi decorations and writing a script for our Rajhastani Puppets. Kym and Natalia also led a peer workshop on how to make a powerpoint using slides on different aspects of Indian Culture. We are hoping to use this class generated powerpoint in our Commonwealth Show next week.
What a team of confident individuals represented us on Tuesday evening in Murrayfield Primary at our annual interschool quiz. Just 2 points between us and the winners Blackburn Primary this year made all the parents ,staff and pupils that came along to support our team very proud!
Louise Scoular made us all proud when she became the first Our Lady of Lourdes pupil to win Blackburn Schools have got Talent. We were second last year. Louise completely dazzled the crowd with an amazing, very modern highland dance. With great athleticism she performed a range of cartwheels and somersaults during a most energetic dance. Superb!
Evie and Rio sang a song from Frozen with great gusto and drama enchanting all the audience with their confidence and talent.
Andrew, who has only been playing the trombone for a few months, also showed what a talented musician he is going to become. I know Mr French has been saying how quickly he has learned. Andrew also sang along with his dad’s ukulele band during the interval encouraging the crowd to join in with a sing-along .
I am so proud of all 4 pupils who have shown themselves to be such effective contributors. If you were there please comment on how well they did…
Look at the amazing construction and design skills P5/6 have shown this week.
Today we had great fun during Outdoor Learning with the parachute. We talked about the patterns on it and what 2D shape it was.
Then we all crowded inside to make a mushroom. Sean suggested if we all move in it will make a higher shape… AND IT DID! Great fun!
