THANK YOU
A’ falbh air làithean saora
Na rudan miorbhuileach ri dhèanamh.
Falbh air bus airson ùine fhada.

Ach bi sinne air ar dòigh.

The show may be over but the memories will last a lifetime. And what memories. The cast, crew, staff, pupils & parents will all have something special to remember from Paible School’s first musical production. The hard work the pupils put in paid off in the performances. The excitement and energy really showed when the spotlights shone and the audiences were mesmerised as the various characters came to life.
WELL DONE EVERYONE!

On Tuesday the 30th May, a group of Secondary pupils participated in after school football training with coaches from the Highland Academy. Everyone enjoyed the training and found that the training they received would come in very useful for the tournament that was to come the next day.
In this particular tournament 3 teams participated, Daliburgh, Liniclate & Paible.
Daliburgh & Liniclate put up a good fight but the best team won in the end, with Paible winning all their matches and Liniclate coming in 2nd.
The scores as follows:
Paible 3—2 Daliburgh
Paible 3—0 Liniclate
Liniclate 3—0 Daliburgh
