CENTENARY-PLUS COMMITTEE-had its inaugural meeting in October 2003 and planned events for 2004/05.  We are glad that our final year in the old building has been a time of celebration for our pupils, teachers, parents and friends of the school ....past and present. 
The committee is chaired by former pupil and Depute headteacher Linda McShane ably assisted by teachers Alma McMillan and Louise McCredie.  I am also happy to be serving and aim to keep everyone up to date via the website.
The news of our school 'closing' and the emergence of a new school in 2005 has, as you can imagine, altered our plans an ideas somewhat. The new school is planned for 2005/06 and we are therefore gearing all our celebrations to end by summer 2005.
