Our Cross Country runners took part in the final competition of the
Dunbartonshire Schools Cross Country League on Saturday at
Kirkintilloch. Every one of the runners gave 100% and the results were
fantastic.
However, our sympathies go to Catriona Booth who was lying in second
place in her race with only about 100 metres to go, when a painful
hamstring injury forced her to pull up.
The P7 boys team finished 2nd winning silver medals
John Brechany - 10th
Nicky O'Brien - 11th
Blaine Lang 18th
In the girls p7 race Caitlin Trotter finished in 3rd place winning
individual bronze.
Well done to all the runners who took part.

LCross Country 30th January at Oxgang
Well, the competition went ahead thank goodness and despite freezing
weather and icy conditions our runners did extrememly well.
In the P7 girls race Catriona Booth finished 3rd, Caitlin Trotter 7th
and Lauren Lyon 11th. This means that the girls win silver medals for
finishing in 2nd team place.
In the P7 boys race John Brechany finished in 13th position.
Unfortunately he was the only P7 boy running for the school so was
unable to be considered for a team position. Come on P7 boys! Come and
help John win a team position.
In the P5/6 girls race Nicola Brechany finished 2nd, Kirsty Donaldson
18th and Erin Halliday 19th. This means they finished a VERY creditable
5th team position out of 11 teams. They were only 4 points short of
winning silver. Next time girls! Courtney Trotter, Hannah Linden,
Rebecca Munro and Jennifer Wilson also ran well on the day, especially
as for some of the girls it was their first competition.
In the P5/6boys race David Johnston finished 19th, Jamie Brennan 26th,
and with Murray McKay our 3rd boy to finish 30secs ahead of Fergus
Hempel,this meant that the boys team position was a worthy 7th out of
the 14 that took part. Well done everyone and keep up the good work for
the next race on Saturday 27th February at Mugdock - 10am start.

Privy Room Uncut?
Another busy couple of weeks for Primary 7... have a read at our thoughts!
On FRIDAY THE 13th, we started practicing social dancing for our Christmas Dance. The jury's still out on whether we LOVE the dancing with a partner bit, however we are really looking forward to getting all dressed up... it is only a few weeks away now!
On Saturday the 14th of November, 20 runners from P5-7 took part in the first cross country race of the season. Brendan and Euan commented on their performance in the boys' race:
Our Privy Room from the book Carries War which we are reading as part of our reciprocal teaching, is totally finished!!! It has now got a little garden with a wall behind and we made a shovel for its compost heap which would no doubt start to mount up very quickly!! (Yeugh!)
We are now going to use it like the Diary Room in Big Brother and make a movie, its sooo exciting!! We are going to dress up as different characters from World War II and make Privy Room entries on camera. We have all been busy planning out exactly what we want our characters to be like; we know everything about their backgrounds and we even know what they are going to be talking about once they get in there. We will all get a chance to make a short clip and we are starting our filming next week!! It's going to be GREAT!! Definitely STAY TUNED as there will be some very memorable characters making an appearance that's for sure!! We can't wait!!
We tea stained our Evacuation Letters this week to make them look old and slightly crispy - they now look FANTASTIC! Check out our photos of them down the side of our blog!
In class we also wrote a story called "THE BELLIGERENT BLITZ!" which was about the emotions and panic which people faced when an air raid siren went off during The Blitz of WW2. We are going to upload our pieces of writing to our WW2 group on Glow so that we can read and peer assess them.
Miss Gallacher has been teaching us about The Holocaust. The best part was learning about a Jewish man called Ernest Levi. He was an amazing man because unlike so many people, he managed to survive! We watched a video about him when he was in school and he was talking about his distraught life during WW2. It was very sad learning about the concentration camps!
In other non WW2 related news... **CONGRATULATIONS** to the seven primary 7s who attained their Level D maths this week, they should all be really proud of themselves!
Our resident origami expert Raymond was invited along to primary 6 room 17 to show Mr M's class some of his fantastic paper creations on Friday. GO RAYMOND!
Finally... On Friday the 20th of November, as a school we decided to "Do Something Different" for Children in Need. Everyone (even the teachers!) took part in a Pyjama Day... it was so much fun! The Pupil Council, along with some primary 7 helpers, ran a Swap Shop and we had a raffle and lots more! Everyone had to pay a fine for not wearing our uniforms - it was worth it to be so comfy though!
DRUM ROLL.... Bearsden Primary managed to raise £435 for Children in Need!! Well done everyone!!
PHEW!! Another week over... Have a great weekend everyone!!
