TOP MARKS FOR ANNICK
Last Friday, teams from twelve local primary schools (Abbey, Annick, Castlepark, Dreghorn, Glebe, Lawthorn, Loudoun Montgomery, Montgomerie Park, St John Ogilvie, St Winning’s, Springside and Woodlands) took part in the Rotary Primary School Quiz organised by Seagate Rotary Club.
This year’s competition was held at Irvine Old Parish Church Hall. For the first time in our competition’s history, we had a Sudden Death Tiebreak in which Annick Primary emerged as winners from Lawthorn Primary, with Glebe Primary in third place.
The Quiz is aimed at Primary Seven pupils who compete in teams of four. There are ten rounds of six questions each, covering General Knowledge and a variety of other topics from Logos and Geography to Sport.
Both Annick’s & Lawthorn’s teams will now represent Seagate Rotary in the Rotary Scotland South Area Final next month.
Pasan Gooneratne, President of Seagate Rotary, presenting the prizes, congratulated all the teams and said: “It was a great competition and every team performed well. The participants have shown how talented and inquisitive young people they are, and every school should be proud of their pupils.”
