Edinburgh done ✅

We have just finished up in the castle and the Royal Mile. The weather has been brilliant today with the sun splitting the trees.

The castle was very cool - we got to see the daily gun salute at 1pm, the massive Mons Meg and the dungeons!

The souvenir shops and street performers, on the Royal Mile, were a big highlight.

We are now about to head towards the boat and home! See you soon!

Crazy Golf at Volcano Falls

The golf skills were on show this evening at Volcano Falls as the P7s took on the challenge of Skull Falls and Volcano Valley. A big shout out to Jonah, Harry and Liam who each won a free game following a hole in one on the 18th! Well done boys! Everyone had a great time!

This was followed up by our last dinner in the Premier Inn, after which the pupils had to tidy their rooms before a room inspection from some very thorough inspectors. They are all packed and in bed now, ready for their last day in Edinburgh tomorrow. Everyone is looking forward to visiting the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle!

A Brilliant Day at Blair Drummond Safari

The pupils have had an absolute ball today at Blair Drummond. There was lots of excitement as we drove through the lion enclosure (with some great tour guiding info from Fraser!) The birds of prey show was excellent - we learnt lots about hawks, barn owls and sea eagles. The sea lion show was very good and included a sea lion pretending to be a shark! However, the highlight might have been the Helter Skelter Slide which was super fast!

A dynamic day out

P7 have had a fun filled afternoon. Dynamic Earth was great fun - everyone was amazed by the indoor iceberg! The space workshop was very interesting - we even got to explore the International Space Station.

Bowling was a hit with strikes all round! Big shout out to Bethany who had a whopping three strikes in a row!

We’ll have more photos later (the internet isn’t playing ball!)

Deep Sea Adventure

Day 2 started well with a great breakfast in the hotel. There was plenty of options, meaning everyone was well fed before we set off for the day.

We have just finished up at the Deep Sea World aquarium. Everyone enjoyed looking at the wide variety of sea life including seahorses, starfish and stingrays. The highlight had to be the sharks - they provided lots of excitement! The gift shop was a very popular attraction after the pocket money had been given out.

The first day

P7 have had a fun yet tiring day travelling. Right now they’re having some much needed chill time. There are a few very tired heads right now! Everyone is really looking forward to a fun filled day tomorrow at Deep Sea World and Dynamic Earth.

Also a big happy birthday to James and a big thank you for the sweets from all of P7.

Here are some photos from today.

Home Sweet Home

It was great that all the boys and girls and members of staff arrived home safely after their P6 trip to Ganaway. I hope everyone had a great time and will have very fond memories for many years to come of their time away. No doubt over the next few days and weeks we will hear lots of stories!

Thanks to Mr Field, Mrs Hart, Mrs Riddall, Mrs Gibson & Mrs Cornish for looking after the children so well.Thanks especially, to Mr Field for organising the school trip. The photos and updates on the Blog were most entertaining!

Once again, another great successful HPS school trip enjoyed by everyone.

The P6 pupils have all been fantastic. This morning, they have had another great breakfast and enjoyed a range of indoor activities including an inflatable assault course, rock climbing and team building games. Their bags are packed and we are now waiting on the bus to take us back to H.P.S.
