Once again the children have earned enough points to have a ‘special day’ in school on Thursday 23rd January. We had visitors coming to the school on the day to work with the children on various Eco related activities and we were also working with PoP planting snowdrops on the Common. Well done to all of the children who earned House Points!
Earlier this school session primary 6 and primary 7 children studied the linen and jute industry in Coupar Angus. We grew our flax. The children learned how the flax plan was used to make linen and had a go at spinning and weaving. The children visited Verdant Works in Dundee to research how sacking is made from the jute plant. Artists from the Living Communities Project worked with them to creat two wall hangings celebrating their learning. These are now on display in the main hall. We are grateful to PoP, Maggie Langelaan, Ron Stephens and Alan Grant for the support they gave to the children throughout their studies.
