Perth and Kinross visit – Steve and I visited Moncrieffe Primary School.  The visit resulted in an impromptu assembly of all 170 pupils.  I thanked them for their involvement in a RIGHT blether and gave them the results.  We later met with two pupils who gave us more information on the school – and told us about the discovery of rare truffles in the school grounds!  Steve and I later met with Bill Atkinson (Head of Children and Family Services) and John Fyffe (Executive Director, Education and Children’s Services).  I fed back on a RIGHT blether, congratulating Perth and Kinross on being the authority with the highest percentage turnout, and discussed the proposed Scottish Government legislation.  Interesting points made with regard to ‘Perth and Kinross campus’, and communal toilets in new build schools.
