Oct 9 2008 by Eric MacKinnon, West Lothian Courier

ST Ninian’s Primary School hosted an all-action primary seven hockey festival.

The fun-filled event saw school pupils from Bankton, Dedridge and Williamston primaries join St Ninian’s pupils in hockey battle organised by the James Young High School Active Sports Coordinator.

At the end of an afternoon’s fun and closely contested matches, Williamston Primary emerged victorious.

All the youngsters involved thoroughly enjoyed the experience, which assisted in boosting fitness levels as well as developing skills in this popular sport.

St Ninian’s Primary was an ideal venue for the festival with its large expanse of playing fields which are an ideal location for sports festivals.
