P4 have had a busy week making puppets during their sewing lessons.  They are also pictured painting their Michelangelo masterpieces.

Well done to our Country Dancing team who performed at the Dumfries Music Festival Ceilidh on Saturday 30th March at Dumfries Academy.    Before performing the dance ‘192 Miles’ which won them their section at the festival, the children got the opportunity to participate in other ceilidh dances and had a fantastic time.  Well done to them all.
