Congratulations to all the pupils on being a part of the winning school for the Rural Connect Sunflower Competition 2013.
All pupils were responsible for caring for the sunflowers that we were given from Rural Connect at Oatridge College. Lauren’s Grandad, Rab, was our expert sunflower grower and he kept us right with what to feed the flowers and how to look after them. He even came in during the summer to continue to care for our sunflowers!
Last Tuesday, a team from Rural Connect came to measure our tallest sunflower and we were the winners with 2m 66cm! Tomorrow (Thursday 19th Sept) Russell and some others from Rural Connect are coming to our assembly to present our award – £300 Dobbies vouchers!! To see the other results please go to:
We would like to extend an invitation to everyone in our school community to come along to our annual MacMillan Coffee Morning on Friday 27th September from 11-12noon.

Friday 27th September is also Roald Dahl’s ‘Dahlicious Dress Up’ day so pupils and adults can come dressed as a Roald Dahl book character and pay &£1.
Today P3/4/5 were visited by Mrs. Fresson. She is an electrical engineer with a company called Optos who build machines to examine our eyes. We recently made eye balls in class as part of our Burke and Hare topic. Her visit allowed us to study the eye in more detail and find out exactly what Mrs. Fresson does. We’re all hoping to see a photo of Murray’s eye soon!
P3,4,5 tested their tastebuds today in a fun science experiment. The challenge was to see if certain foods could be tasted better when dotted on to different areas of their tongue. They tried salt, cocoa, lemon juice and honey. Do you know where your tastebuds are?
