• Towell House says 'thank you'!

  Sat 04 May 2024

  We were delighted to welcome our friends from Towell House to school again this week when Mr. Henry’s P7 class was presented with a trophy and framed collage to recognise their fantastic contribution to the recent ‘See and Be Seen’ photography project.

   

  The pupils visited residents in March as part of 'Age Awareness' day to help teach the senior citizens how to take photos and selfies using an I-pad. The collage is a joyful mix of smiles, laughs and memories; it will be displayed at the main entrance in school for everyone to see.

   

  The visitors also sat down with Mrs Smart, Pupil councillors, a local joiner and gardeners from Dundonald Nurseries to draw up plans to spend the money won at the Grand Choice Awards in March. Preparation is now underway for a wonderful new outdoor space at the grass area at end of the main school building. Watch this space!
