Congratulations to Ross Taylor, one of our p5 pupils, who has returned from an under-10s football tournament in Barcelona with a winners medal and huge trophy.
Playing for Scotland Boys Club in the Benjamin Capeόn Festival, he and 7 teamates, took on a team from Finland and two Spanish sides in the group stages. They won 2 and lost 1, but this was enough to see them through to the semi-finals where they took on another Spanish side called Martorelles, winning 5-1. This gave them a place in the final and a chance for revenge against Racing Blanc, who had defeated them in the group. A brilliant final ended 5-3 to the Scotland team.
A rare away victory and silverware for a Scottish team in Europe!
Well done.
Well done to all the pupils, staff and parent volunteers who worked so hard to make a big difference today.
From 60 minutes of darkness and no computers during our earth hour to digging, creating scarecrows, making bird houses and bird feeders, birdwatching, litter picking, recycling and building a bug hotel. Surely that green flag is sure to follow soon!!!
Here are some pictures from today. Have a great holiday weekend, I think you’ve all earned a rest.

Thanks to Tom for showing concern about my blog silence over the long weekend! Our house broadband was down and it was like being cut off from the world!
But now I’m back!
Ok, let’s see who is on the blog this weekend. A prize on Monday for whoever gets it first. It’s a predictor so just guess and you’ll need to post your guess BEFORE kickoff.
Which player will score the first goal in the Man Utd v Arsenal match this weekend?
Good luck!
