On Wednesday pupils in Primary 1, 2 and 3 had an exciting time. Shirley Husband, author of the McCoo books, who is a regular visitor to Gargieston, launched her brilliant new book ‘Angus McCoo and the Starry Night’. Shirley brought Maurice Hynds, who does the fantastic illustrations, and the Harris McCoo mascot along to see the pupils too. We also were very lucky to have two members of staff from the Scottish Dark Sky Observatory with their inflatable planetarium. Pupils all got the opportunity to go inside the planetarium and learn lots of facts about the planets.
