Auchencairn Viking hoard trip
P1-7 had a fantastic trip today to the Kirkcudbright Galleries to see the Viking hoard that had been discovered a few years ago near Balmaghie. There were lots of interesting replica artefacts for us to hold and guess what they could be. We also got to see the real artefacts in the displays downstairs and did a quiz! After that we had a chance to make our own Viking birds out of clay which we then got to take home.
We had a great time! Thank you to the Galleries for having us to visit.
Borgue Remembrance Day
P1-7 went down to the war memorial this afternoon where we held a minute silence to remember the war dead. Some of the older pupils read out poems they had written and Morann played “Scots Wha Hae” on the bagpipes.

Pupils were busy last week collecting litter and rubbish using their new litter pickers kindly donated by the Rotary Club. Well done everyone!

We also had our points and award winners . Well done to Benjamin, Arthur M, Jake, Morann and Arthur S. Excellent job, everyone!
Have a fun and safe Bonfire Night!

Borgue whole school maths and literacy challenge!
On Monday all of P1-7 worked with Mrs Graham, Minnie and Mrs Storrie on a group challenge.
After reading “The Scarecrows’ Wedding” the children were given the task of creating a picture with at least 4 different 2D shapes. Lots of super team work happened , with discussion about which different shapes suited each part of the scarecrow. The older children were also excellent at leading the younger ones.
Well done everyone!
