A sad farewell

Busby Primary said a sad farewell to our outgoing P7 year group on Friday 24th June.  The P7s led a wonderful and emotional service at Busby Parish Church before coming back to the school to get their shirts and yearbooks signed. 

P7 Leavers

All pupils and staff lined up to cheer them out of the school when the bell rang at 1pm.  Class of 2015/16 – we will miss you!
