The Portree team played really well and were runners up  in the tournament which was won by Milton of Leys.

At Portree Primary School we value a home school partnership that continues to support and develop the full potential of every child. As part of this partnership and as part of our on-going self-evaluation procedures, we would like to hear parents’ current views about the school to help us plan our ongoing improvement agendas.

All online surveys should be completed (or paper copies returned to the school) by Friday 29th January 2016.
