“I was very fortunate to have witnessed Dennis Alexanders “Scotch Broth” show for children at Dysart Primary School this afternoon. I would heartily recommend this to all Primary schools … he really gets the bairns involved!
My kids said it was the best time of their life when we went back to class! Had a ball!”
