Sports Day P1-P7 Wednesday 13th June 2018

Posted on by

Sports Day is nearly here!

It is tomorrow, 13th June 1.15pm-3pm in the playground.

The children will be competing for the Sports Day house Cup.  Last year it was won by Crathes – can they retain their title?

There will be a 45 minute potted sports competition with all pupils participating at the same time.  Please do not wander around the pitch.  Stay behind the roped area.

The children will then participate in running races.

As mentioned in May 2018 Newsletter, your child can wear comfortable sports clothes to school tomorrow – they can add a splash of their house colour if they wish.

Crathes – YELLOW

Fraser – GREEN

Edinburgh – BLUE

Stirling – RED

The parent council will be selling strawberries and cream, tea, coffee and diluting juice.  The money generated from the sales of the refreshments will be given to the school to buy more sports equipment for the pupils.

We are hoping for a dry day so ensure your child wears sunscreen if the sun is out!

P7 Ardeonaig Residential – Day 3

Posted on by

We all went our separate ways today with 2 groups heading for an adventure day in the hills and surrounding forests.  The other groups were either gorge walking, high ropes climbing or learning bushcraft.

It turned out to be a beautiful sunny day which made the time spent in freezing waters of the Loch more bearable.  Again, we have been overwhelmed at the determination of our pupils and they have all shone in their own ways.  Have a look at our pictures from today’s adventures.

P7 Residential Ardeonaig Day 2

Day 2 and the weather was a bit dull but that didn’t stop the adventures.  The children were learning bushcraft skills – building fires and baking their own bread; climbing the high ropes, gorge walking and raft building.

It may have been cold in the water but every child had a smile on their face and they learned about encouraging others and facing their fears.  We have some very brave children in our P7 class.

Have a look at our Day 2 adventures.

We set off today on our trip to Ardeonaig. We are going to be staying for 4 nights and we are all very excited.

After a relaxing bus journey we arrived in Kenmore and we had our lunch on the village green.

We were then picked up by the Ardeonaig staff and we drove the 7 miles to the centre.

With safety talks and orientation completed, it was time to explore the grounds with the activity leaders – Nathan, Greg, Jake and Jess.
