The Primary 3 children are taking part in a gardening club again this year over a six week block. We are very grateful to Mrs Moffat, who has volunteered to come into school to help and to Mrs Mackenzie and Mr McMurtrie for helping to organise activities. The club began by planting potatoes in week 1. We look forward to seeing them grow and to harvesting them again for soup in the Autumn.

On Tuesday 24th April Primary 3A/T took part in a litter pick to tidy up Colliston Park. The children were accompained by Mr McMickan from Dalbeattie Community Initiative. The activity is all part of The Keep Scotland Beautiful Scheme. Although the children regularly litter pick in their own school grounds, this particular event is aimed at widening our tidying and care of the environment to places in the local community.
