St Magnus Day Celebrated

Over the past few years we have established the tradition of celebrating St Magnus Day by getting all the children at Papdale who share the great Saints name to raise the Orkney flag outside the School in his memory. This year we had two children who performed the flag raising ceremony with some help from Mr Mackinnon, our Janitor. 

As Magnus and Mansie  are currently in Pre school and P4 this should ensure that this tradition is secure for at least the next 7 years!

Its hard work but they get they eventually get the  flag to the top of the pole!
