Primary 1 pupils’ from Dalmellington Primary were delighted to attend Doon Academy where they heard stories, read by pupils from S2, from the Kate Greenaway competition entries. The primary pupils voted for the best book which was ‘The Adventures of the Dish and the Spoon’ by Mini Grey.
Mrs Gormanley presented prizes to the readers of the winning story.


The Doon Academy Learning Partnership Primary 7 pupils attended Doon Academy for their two induction days.

Two new members of staff will be joining the Science Department . Probationer teachers Ms Peacock and Mr McPherson will be teaching Biology and Physics respectively. Also, Ms. Borthwick will be a probationer teacher in the English Department. Welcome to Doon!

Pupils from S1/2 took part in the annual Readers Cup Quiz at Loudon Academy on Wednesday June 6. Although the team tried well, they didn’t manage to snatch victory, and their advice to any competitors next year is to be confident!

Mrs Cummings S2 elective class, including Steven Robertson and Neil McManus, have designed and made a friendship quilt. Well done to everyone in the class!

The S1-S3 school trip to Alton Towers takes place on Tuesday 19th June. Wishing you all a great day out!
