Friends of Eyemouth Fort
We have recently been visited by the ‘Friends of Eyemouth Fort’, a local group promoting and raising awareness of the medieval fort that was once on Eyemouth Point. The pupils were told about what the old fortress was like and its significance to our town.
As part of this visit, the pupils were invited to complete artwork depicting life in the old fort. The submissions were judged and each winner has been presented with a £10 gift voucher to use with the next Book Club catalogue. Well done all.

Scottish Book Trust Week
Primary 1 pupils at Eyemouth Primary School were recently entertained by a group of S3 pupils from Eyemouth High School as part of Book Week Scotland celebrations. The group, members of the library reading group, were keen to share their enthusiasm for reading with younger pupils. Mrs Renstead, the librarian organised the visit in conjunction with primary teachers, Ms Horne and Mrs Delaney.
The stories – “Ringo the Flamingo” and “Owl Babies” captured the attention of the primary pupils with plenty keen to ask questions at the end. Millie, an S3 pupil said “It was nice to make a connection with the younger pupils who behaved so well.” Ebony added that for her the experience had been “absolutely amazing.” Thank to Scottish Border Council Library Service for supplying the story sacks.
Primary 1 pupils said:
“It was a lovely story, I liked it when Mummy came.” – Katie
“I liked the whole story” – AJ
“I liked Ringo Flamingo when he saved the egg.” – Evelina
“I enjoyed the girls reading the story.” – Samuel
“I enjoyed their visit and the storysacks” – Grace
