For the first time ever, we have been able to send a cricket team to an inter-schools competition. The team was selected from the upper school children who have attended the Wednesday after-school training or the curricular P6 work taught by volunteer, Mark Colman. Mark has a long cricketing history and his enthusiasm for the game is clear to see.
We are delighted to report that the team won the tournament today and have qualified for the Scottish finals in Perth later in the session! An amazing achievement! Thank you so much to Mark for giving up his time and well done to the team!

Thank you so much to all the P5 boys and girls who represented Gargieston in yesterday’s Cluster Tournament with only 1 game lost by either team. A terrific achievement!

Well done to everyone who took part!
Congratulations to Blaike Hay, Kai Linton and Roan Darnbrough on their footballing success yesterday.
