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?

Slow Marathon!!!

P1 to P5 took part in the Slow Marathon.

277 people walked around the field today.

We all walked round the field in silence.

Then we went to the all weather pitch and made the word SLOW.

Mihret,Ross and Norma Hunter from Deveron Arts helped us spell the word.

A photographer called Jan took a photo from the school playground which we hope to put on this blog soon.

Altogether each person walked 1319 metres.

The grand total that we walked was 227 miles.
