Inter-House Quiz

At the end of a very hectic Advent period, the houses entered into Quiz Combat for the first time for 3 years! A very well-fought competition ( we will gloss over Mr Palmer’s singing, and Mr Templeton’s dancing…..)

P1-P3 Honours go to Duncan, and P4-P7 Honours go to MacAdam. Overall winners by a mere five points were Duncan. Great fun was had by all!

Remembrance Day

Thank you very much to the group of boys and girls from P7 who accompanied our Nursery children today on their walk to Calside Cemetery to lay a wreath at the War Graves. They were extremely helpful and a special thank you for reading the poem Flanders Field.
We have also been very busy making a poppy display for the office.
