Our Stories, Our Place

Laingholm Primary School proudly presents this documentary about history of the school and village. Starting with the early days on the Laing’s Farm, the film traces how school, home and social life have changed over the years.
Gasp when the Victorian camera flash exploded on Music Hall night! Learn how Sandy’s Parade got its name. Relive the day a whale got stranded at Laingholm Point.
These are stories that have been gathered from locals that students were able to contact about their growing up in this area and their association with the school. The collection of stories and past histories of the school will be ongoing in the next year.
The project was supported by the Ministry of Education Creatives in Schools scheme.
