A big thank you to everyone who came along to the first training night. An excellent turn out.  Mr Smith and I were delighted.

Thank you again.

Gargieston Primary has traditionally taken part in the Ayrshire and Scottish orienteering festivals over a number of years and have competed to a high level.  This of course was down to the dedication and enthusiasm of Ms Harvey.  Mr Smith and myself (Mrs Mackie) would love to keep this tradition alive and are hoping to get as many children to attend these events as possible.    Every year there are evening training events run by AYROC, giving the children experience of an orienteering course.  Here is the information:
