Strathgarve Primary School

Baking bonanza!                 
Strathgarve primary raised over £370 for the Glasgow trip and if there is money left over a day trip we might get ice-cream. We delivered cake slips to people’s houses. After a couple of days all the slips were gathered all the slips in and we counted all the orders up. Maisie, Tiana, Ella, Becky, Mrs. Moxon, Mrs. McCarthy, Miss. Bate, Mrs. K Mackenzie, Mrs. Ross, Mrs. C Mackenzie, Angela, Heather and Ms. Tyson helped with the baking THANK YOU!!!!!!                                              
The pupils made thank you cards for the adults that helped us bake and who bought baking.


Royal Wedding                                     
On April 29th it was the royal wedding. Strathgarve primary had a wedding breakfast in the nursery. It was wonderful.  Mrs McCarthy very kindly made us some cupcakes for the wedding breakfast. Thank you! We all watched the royal wedding on the laptops. We had a great tea party in the p2-3 classroom. We had really yummy cupcakes made by Angela Moxon. Thank you very much Angela. We were all dancing to music at the end of the day.  


Trip to Glasgow!!                                   
On the 1st-3rd June 2011, Maisie and Ella from Strathgarve and Marybank pupils were away at Glasgow for three days and two nights. They had lots of fun such as canoeing down Loch Lomond and power kiting. They also visited Kelvin grove museum, went ten pin bowling and spent their final day at Blair Drummond Safari Park. They stayed in the Scottish youth hostel opposite to Kelvin Grove Park. They had a great time in Glasgow!!!!!

Recycling                        
In our school we recycle paper and Margaret recycles the envelopes. We also  recycle drinks cans with help from Lorisa. We got a cheque for over £ 30 from the Highland Council. We have started collecting ink cartridges to recycle too. For our garden we use our grass cuttings for our compost bin.

Thank you tea                                    
We had a thank you tea at school to say thank you to all the people who helped us. We now have a lovely garden because the forestry did it for us. Mums and dads always help us too. We had tea and cakes and we sang songs to say ‘thank you’.
