Today, Friday 27th February Primary 7 had a visit from Linda Jane (CITB) and Debbie (Graham Construction).  They came along to talk to the children about the construction industry and to build a large structure in our gym hall!!  The children were involved in a discussion about the different types of structures constructed, different materials used and different trades involved.  They also talked at length about Health and Safety and conducted a Risk Assessment.  Construction began in a small way but evolved into a Giant Tetrahedron.  The children worked extremely hard and a high standard of team work was evident.  They were justifiably proud of the final outcome!! The children made these comments
