Pupils once again decided not to let the rain get them down on the last day of term. International Mud Day is officially the 29th June, but nobody felt like coming to school on Saturday to take part – what’s a day between friends? The fun started with a muddy burn walk, then a ‘hit the moving target’ session on the rope swing. The water pistols were an attempt to keep things clean but, like most plans, it didn’t quite work that way! Mrs Finnie certainly wasn’t any cleaner by the time she’d had her turn.
We thought a dip in the Kyles would clean everyone up nicely before returning to school, but it was a muddy bunch who squelched their way back up the hill to get hosed down and changed. Now they can all do it again tomorrow – officially – with their families……..
That looked like brilliant fun. Must remember the date for next year but may have to have trial run too. We had a bit of a muddy event at Kilchrenan but I seemed to be the only muddy one as it was all part of a cunning plan devised by the pupils as a memorable leaving event! All good (clean) fun.
