General Knowledge Quiz.

Four pupils from Gordon Primary took part in a very exciting quiz last week.

Angus and Aiden  (P7), and Lucy and Magnus(P6) competed in the final of a VERY close competition.  The scores were neck and neck and the Gordon Primary team were just beaten by the tie breaker.

The tie breaker question was “How high is Ben Nevis?”

Do you know the answer?
