Well done India.

This is a huge achievement for Erin. Well done and best of luck at the Royal International Show!
Equestrian success for Daisy Cross
Kilgraston pupil, Daisy Cross maintained a cool head to keep her position at the top of the 100cm leaderboard with her pony Ebony at the inaugural Horse & Hound Grassroots Eventing Championships.
“It feels amazing to have won,” said Daisy. “I was reasonably nervous beforehand but the showjumping course was nice and really suited my mare.”
Tennis Success for Maia and Kemi
Last week, our U13 and U11 teams travelled to St Leonard’s for the annual tennis tournament.
Maia and Kemi won the Under 13 age group and overall Kilgraston finished in 2nd place. Much to the girls delight the prize was ice cream from Jannetta’s!
Well done to all the girls.

Inspire Catering Awarded CIS Excellence Award
A HUGE Congratulations to all at Inspire Catering who won the Healthier Scotland Award in last week’s CIS Catering Excellence. The award was picked up by Mr David Pease and Mrs Lorna MacFarlane of Inspire Catering.
Mrs Lorna MacFarlane said,
“We are a small family at Inspire, and at times like this it’s so lovely to share the recognition with our whole team! As a business we are honoured to have received this award for the 2nd time having also won it in 2010! It makes all the hard work worthwhile as every day we ensure healthy eating is at the heart of all food services we provide whether in a school dining room or staff restaurant. Therefore it’s fantastic to be recognised for these efforts on a wider stage, as we truly believe we are doing our bit to help make Scotland healthier.”
