An election!

If you've been following Primary 3's adventures helping with The Secret Of Cloven Hill, you'll be breathless with anticipation wondering whether the hero's name Burns should be changed to Burnsie. There couldn't have been a better day to find out.
'Right,' says  teacher, Miss Reid taking up a white board and big black pen. 'This is how things are done democratically, like today's election.'
So we get a clever wee spiel about such matters, then, the pupils place their vote and it's marked on the board.
'So, it's Burns and not Burnsie,' she concludes. A show of hands gives Macrae the surname vote and I'm a bit surprised but glad it's so easy to fix that with a word- processor.
Next week, I'm hoping to show some of their work on this blog if we get the necessary permission. What fun!
