Portpatrick Primary were out and about walking in the local community, this week, as part of their “Daily Mile” challenge. The route they took on Monday led them round the harbour towards the park. At the park there was a lot of activity, as Mr Harbottle was there helping as the former play equipment was being taken away to make way for the new equipment. The school children were very excited to see that new play equipment was arriving and that the village play park was about to undergo a transformation, in memory of young Euan.
It just so happened a photographer was there to capture the start of construction work for the local paper – it was nice to see the school on the front page of the Wigtown Free Press this week, along side Mr Harbottle.
