P5/6/7 (2017/18)

Primary 5/6/7 competed in the annual Athletics Competition Event, where lots of schools in West Dunbartonshire, competed against each other in a series of events, including target throwing, relay races, long jump, speed bounce and many more!  Although we were unsuccessful in winning the event, we had a brilliant time meeting other schools and encouraging each other to do our very best; which is the most important thing.  Every person in the class got to participate and experience at least 2 events each.  St Martin's certainly know how to try their best!  Ready to go! St Martin's P5/6/7 The over and under event was really tricky!  Measuring the distance of Shaun's standing long jump. Nikole enjoys her healthy snack! The girls' relay event was very tiring but exciting at the same time! The top 3 teams are announced as Bonhill, Renton and overall winners Christie Park. Well done everyone! We are very proud of each other! ...

We enjoyed creating invitations and designing menus to celebrate Robert Burns and his famous "Address to a Haggis".  The best thing about it seemed to be the (sugar free) Irn Bru and (not so sugar free, shortbread) as a wee treat!  Some children even tried haggis for the very first time! As you will see from some of the photos, MOST people enjoyed the taste! The children all sang along to Auld Lang Syne  and Loch Lomond . Aidan and Ava are a little unsure! Smiles all round with the haggis! Erin loved the shortbread! Cheers from Mirin and Abi!  Erin loved the delicious treats! Nikole and John Paul thoroughly enjoyed our Burn's Day Celebration Adam looks delighted with the special treat (sugar free of course! These children all loved the special  Cayden tried haggis for the very first time.  He said it was "strange but nice". These three children were proud of their Invitation to a Burns Supper!
