Just WOW!

We were all so very impressed with your spectacular creations. You certainly have the most amazing creative skills and super imaginations.

It was lovely to have received such positive comments about this creative homework task. The children all did themselves proud and most importantly they had a lot of fun with their family at the same time.

School favourites included: Teacake Nessie, Irn Bru Coo, The Scottish Tin Man, Tartan Coo, an edible Nessie, a very spikey hedgehog and some wonderful potato creations, not to mention some wonderfully decorated shortbread.

Well done everyone who completed the task , we are looking forward to working with the children to decide on the next creative challenge.

From dealing with huffs and puffs, fussy eaters, to battles over bedtimes, us parents know how hard it can be.

Parent Club is full of ideas from parents from all over Scotland on little things you can try out to keep the kids busy and happy – and that will make your life a little easier!

Our sincere apologies.

Despite the seriously cold air in Invergordon this afternoon Team Milton ran their hearts out. We could be prouder of each and every single one of our children. They all crossed the finish line smiling from ear to ear. Special well done to Paulina who finished 8th overall. Superb running from everyone 👌🏃🏽‍♀️

A very well done to Arek who won first prize for his banner design. the JRSO’s deicided something needed to be done to help slow down cars entering our car park. The P6/7 class voted for the design they felt best met the success criteria. His design is pictured top left. The other 4 runners up will have their designs made into book marks. Great job P6/7, can’t wait to have our new banner installed when it arrives!

Hard to believe that the time has come to say farewell for now to our lovely Mrs Christie. Today she begins her maternity leave and a new and very exciting chapter with Mr Christie.

The children and staff want to send her all the luck and love in the world. We will really really miss you but we know you will be back with us all before you know it!

We have our fingers crossed that Baby Christie will pop in and see us at some point in the near future! 💗👶🏼💗
