Scottish Country Dancing

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.

P1 Farm Visit

P1 visited Smallholmburn Farm this week as part of their farming topic. Farmer Stewart showed them how to milk cows and they were lucky to see an Arla tanker and learn what happens to milk when it leaves the farm. Vet Ian gave a scan to an expectant cow. It looks like everyone had a fantastic time.

Achievements this Week

Well I had a lot of fun taking the photos for this weeks achievements. There were so many pupils today that we were a bit squashed outside the office so Mrs Boyd came up with a fantastic idea and we ventured outside to take the photos. Thank you for braving the cold (at least it was dry!).
