The school was very pleased to receive a visit from the TCDL Committee on Wednesday 13th December 2017. The Committee came to present a £20 book token to every child in the school for Christmas. We are most grateful to TCDL for their generosity towards our pupils and hope that all the children will enjoy choosing new books with their tokens.

A Monster for Miss Mackinnon!
Our P1’s spent the last week working through their new reading book. The book was called “A Monster for Miss Owen.” In the book the children in the class use boxes and cardboard rolls to make a monster. So, on Friday we gave our P1’s the chance to do the same for their teacher. Pictured below is “Dave” and I am sure you will agree that he looks fab! Well done boys.
