In January 2010 the Girls Model pupils moved into our brand new school building. After 2 years of building and construction which was carefully observed by Mr Hamilton, our new school was finally finished. Pupils were taken aback at how modern and spacious the building is. Gone are the days of getting stuck in the corridors by huge masses of pupils trying to get by, now we get to our class on time without the traffic jams. Our canteen is the envy of other schools and our computer suites are up-to-date. Mr Graham will soon be discovering that he has a big list of P7 pupils who want to come and be a Girl’s Model pupil.

However, in all the excitement there was sadness at leaving the old school behind. The school served us for 50 years and did a wonderful job. All the pupils have brilliant memories of the old school in which they made new friends and made their mark in the school.

Even some of the teachers have their own memories of being a pupil in the school. As I’m sure we have all been told “changes are good” and this change looks to be a fantastic one. We are all excited to be spending many more years in this amazing school. So it now only remains for one more thing to be said, “Goodbye Old School, Hello New School”
