Skye pupils win Rotary Quiz competition

Portree Primary School recently won the North West Highland, Primary Rotary Quiz Trophy when they won the four school area final on Saturday 27 April, in Dingwall.

The event was hotly contested with the Portree team beating runners up Avoch Primary by just 4 points. The other teams in the Area Final were Brora Primary and Craighill Primary.

Portree and Avoch Primaries will now go forward to the district final in Perth in June where the top 6 schools from the 420 who started the competition, will compete for the first prize of £500, with the next two runners up being awarded £300 and £200 respectively.

The Portree winning team were pupils Jonathan Smith, Dougal McKiggan, Emily Macdonald and Iona Macaskill.
