FLYING THE FLAG AT SCHOOL

Pupils show their creativity

- CLARE DAMODARAN

Talented pupils at Coupar Angus Primary School have been recognised for their creativity in a competitio­n organised by the school and the 2 Sisters Food Group.

The youngsters made flags which will be displayed in the staff canteen at the 2 Sisters Food Group poultry processing plant in the east Perthshire town.

And seven lucky winners from classes at the school were presented with gift vouchers worth £25 donated by the company for their designs.

Head teacher at Coupar Angus Primary School, Nikki Drew, said: “Children from across Coupar Angus Primary School took part in making flags to be displayed at the 2 Sisters Food Group processing plant.

“The children enjoyed using their skills in geography to choose a particular country and did some research on its nature, culture and history in order to create beautiful eye-catching posters and flags.

“We’re very proud of the children and their efforts and are looking forward to continuing to work with the 2 Sisters Food Group on other projects and initiative­s in the future.”

A spokespers­on for 2 Sisters Food Group added: “We were looking for some nice pictures to brighten up our staff canteen in Coupar Angus.

“The site employs 24 different nationalit­ies so we thought pictures of flags from around the world with a few interestin­g facts for ‘World Day’ on May 21 would be a wonderful opportunit­y to engage with the local primary school.”
