A page of Catrine history

A huge thank you to Matthew in P5 who brought in a very interesting book, which is now proudly on display in our trophy cabinet.

Matthew’s mum was gifted a very old book by one of her customers, who had purchased it in a market in Glasgow.

The book has a certificate inside which read:

Catrine Public School

First Prize for Reading in Divisional Boys Infant Class

Awarded to David Aitken

Donated by Hugh Ewing Esq. on 28th July 1882
