Our P6/7 pupils have been working hard over the past week to prepare a persuasive election speech in the hope they will be voted in as House Captain for the forthcoming year. Since we aren’t allowed assemblies at the moment, we ventured outside into the fresh air (luckily there were blue skies at this point!) to listen to the speeches. For Portree, we had Izzy and Lillie competing against each other; and for Dunskey, we had Robin, Maya and Ava Lily – so the competition was on!!
After the speeches, every pupil in the school got the opportunity to vote for 1 person to be House Captain for their house. After a tense 10 minutes (which apparently “felt like a lifetime” to our eagerly awaiting P6/7 pupils) the votes were counted and House Captains announced.
Our new Dunskey House Captain is Robin, and our new Portree House Captain is Izzy. Well done to everyone who worked their wee socks off to prepare and deliver some amazing speeches – it really was a very close vote (1 vote between the Dunskey candidates, and 2 votes between the Portree candidates!). Good luck to our new House Captain!
