There will also be lots of activities and stalls to get info about the various clubs, trips and activities that go on in school and Musselburgh. There will be hot BBQ burgers, Luca’s ice cream and inflatables too! All the live music action kicks off on the main stage at 11am and will wind up at 2pm.  Keep reading the Pupil News to be kept up-to-date with the bands and performers…
