Highland Games Highlights

What’s the weather to be like on Friday?

Terrible…

Wet…

Torrential rain….

Was that hail outside?

Dreich…

Did someone say snow? But it’s March!…

Should we just postpone?

No one was more surprised with our Scottish weather than all of the Primary 2 teachers on Friday morning last week! It was a close call but we were delighted that the weather stayed dry enough for us to go ahead with our much anticipated Highland Games. The pupils had a fabulous time and they competed amazingly well.

Click the video link below to see the highlights of our surprisingly dry day.

 

Congratulations to everyone involved and well done to our winning clan!
