On Thursday afternoon we invited previous and current staff and colleagues of Murrayfield Primary School to have a tour of our school. Our Primary 7 Tour Guides were fantastic at guiding our guests around the school. Afternoon tea was provided and gave guests an opportunity to reminisce. It was lovely to see so many previous colleagues, particularly Margaret McDowell who was our first school secretary in 1964.
