Today, our school community came together for a very special send-off as we said goodbye to Mr Nisbet after 16 years of loyal service<\/strong> as our much-loved lollipop man<\/strong>. For so many pupils, parents and staff, Mr Nisbet has been a familiar, friendly face at the school gates\u2014always there with a smile, a kind word and, most importantly, keeping everyone safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The celebration was filled with warmth and gratitude. A heartfelt thank-you speech<\/strong> reflected on the many years of dedication Mr Nisbet has given to our school. This was followed by a beautiful poem written and read by the children<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Music played a special part in the afternoon. Mr McGuigan treated us to original music on the piano and guitar<\/strong>, creating a wonderful atmosphere, before the children delighted everyone with a joyful Merry Christmas song<\/strong>, sung beautifully and full of festive cheer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The celebrations continued with refreshments and cake<\/strong>, kindly organised by Elizabeth\u2019s daughter, Kerryanne<\/strong>, giving everyone the chance to chat, share stories and say their goodbyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Nisbet\u2014Robert<\/strong>\u2014you will be greatly missed by us all. Thank you for 16 fantastic years of care, commitment and kindness. We wish you all the very best for the future<\/strong> and hope you know how much you have meant to our school community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
