Final performance!

We delivered our final performance of our St Andrew's ceilidh on Tues 13th at Gilbertson Day Centre. The audience were very appreciative and we have been well rewarded with sweets!

Here are some photos of the event.

We held our St Andrew's day ceilidh in the school hall on 29th November. It was well attended by parents, grandparents and friends. We all took part and performed our pieces with enthusiasm! All the rehearsals and hard work were well worth it judging by the reaction from the audience.

We have also performed it to the lunch club at the Salvation Army hall where it was a great success.
See some stills from our video of the dress rehearsals below. Hopefully more pictures to come!

The quality of the video in the hall was not great, especially for the Broons and Oor Wullie sketches so we will try again in a smaller setting and may get some footage from the Gilbertson Day centre when we perform there next week.

Remembrance day.

We remembered our troops by observing a 2 minute silence at 11.00 am on the 11th of the 11th.
We also made crosses with poppies and wrote some poems which are displayed on the wall outside our classroom.
