Sports Day

Weather permitting, the school Sports will go ahead this FRIDAY, 15th JUNE, at Myrekirk, starting at 10am. All classes are together this year, as we’re having an Olympic themed event with our Houses as the teams. Mr Malone and the rest of the teachers have put together a full programme and it should be a fun morning.
