Jenson Cycles Competitively (by Nina H) Jenson in P2 came third in his latest cycling competition. He was the youngest cyclist in the competition by at least three years. He started at the age of five and has worked his way to compete fiercely and competitively by the age of six. When he achieved his latest win, he was emotional with happy tears when he found out. Jenson told us, ‘Cycling is a tricky sport with obstacles you had to get over. The obstacles were jumps, small paths, vines and trees. When I became third I was puffed out.’ He does other sports such as running but likes cycling way more. Cameron Reaches Over the Rainbow (by P6 pupils) Cameron, P4, made a fantastic ‘McCoo’ highland cow picture along with his classmates. Mrs Snedden and Cameron got in touch with the real artist, Steven Brown to thank him for the work that inspired Cameron’s picture. You can imagine his delight when he got a personalized reply from Steven himself! Steven replied that Cameron’s art work was amazing and to keep up the good work. This was great feedback coming from a true artist! Cameron is going to write back to Steven Brown to say ‘thank you’ for his reply and to explain why he made this incredible artwork and sent it to him. Cameron’s painting was so successful; we hope he will do some more paintings in the future. Website Contact us Twitter
