125th Birthday Open Weekend

On Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th september our school was open to the community and general public including pupils past and present.  All the pupils and staff in the school had worked really hard on displays and the gathering of information about school life 125 years ago when the school was first opened, as we tried to make the visit as interesting as possible.  This was combined with photos and memorabilia that had been handed in by members of the community and gathered from West Lothian archives, as well as teachers’ own personal belongings.

Both days were very busy and it was a wonderful experience to be part of, listening to memories being shared and revisited combined with answering questions about the new school and the plans for the future.  Here are a selection of photos taken over the weekend.
