Shinty Medal
Fergus Taylor came in showing off yet another medal!!
Fergus has recently joined the newly formed Shinty Team in Appin and last Sunday 22nd September he joined the rest of his team mates to participate in the Shinty Tournament at Mossfield Park in Oban.
The Appin Shinty team came second and all the children were delighted to receive a medal for all their hard work.

Barcaldine Plum Jam
Our plum tree had its very first harvest this year. There was loads and we were unsure what to do with our plums!

It was decided that we would try to make plum jam for an event that we planned to participate in. Unfortunately the event was cancelled due to the weather conditions but that didn’t matter because our jam was a resounding success – much to the astonishment of staff!!

The children all helped by picking, cleaning, cutting and cooking the plums and one Friday morning we had the pleasure of tasting our successful jam. Toast all round for playtime snack – yum yum!!!
