Poppytastic visit to Lady Haig Poppy Factory.

Primary 6/7 had a fantastic morning spent with the ex service men, at the Lady Haig Poppy Factory.  Children learned the significance of the poppy and how the money raised is used to help ex service men, woman and their families in times of need. They were able to chat with the ex service men working there and take part in making some poppies themselves. The men at the factory also made a wreath for our school, with our school badge, which we will be able to display in the school.
