Fishcross Primary School has celebrated its 150th anniversary.

The milestone also marked the culmination of the school’s heritage project, which saw pupils dive into the archives to research different parts of the school’s history.

Former pupils and staff were welcomed back to the school to swap stories and share memories to mark the special anniversary.

There was also a playful recreation of the institute’s original opening ceremony in 1876.

Evelyn, a primary two pupil, cut the anniversary cake, and she was celebrating her own birthday on the same day.

The children also planted a commemorative tree on the school grounds, donated by current headteacher Siobhan Haldane.
