A huge well done and congratulations to all the P6/7 pupils who took part in the Perthshire Primary Schools Cross Country event on the 19th February. There was a great photo in the PA. The weather was kind and the children ran to the best of their ability, many of them beating their placings from last year – which is great news.
Congratulations are also due to the children who took part in the Cross Country race at Strathallan on Thursday 27th February. The weather was not so kind, with hail and rain, but it didn’t dampen their spirits and again they did very well. Thanks are due to Mrs Higginbottom for helping to accompany the runners to and from Strathallan.
The whole school had an afternoon of Burns celebrations last Friday (24th January). We started with a Burns lunch. Angus Lapslie from Strathallan School piped in the haggis, which was addressed by Sean, Sarah and Connor. The pupils all then enjoyed an excellent lunch of haggis or kilted sausages prepared by Mrs Lyttle. After a break for a run around, we all met again in the hall to hear Scots poems read by children from each class. Mr Blair from Bridge of Earn then spoke to the children about Burns and his life.
