I was in the P6 Virginia Reel team. I got my very first pair of jeans for the occasion, which was also the first time I ever wore long trousers!!
I still remember Donald McKee playing a horse in the P7 action song, he was the funniest thing in the whole show.

I was part of the 'Allison's Lad' cast, but recollect very clearly a little lad from one of the lower Primary Classes who took part in the Concert. (I guess 6 or 7 years old)
He walked onto, what must have been an enormous stage to him, pointed up towards the Gallery with such confidence, and with a strong voice said ..

'There's a Spider on the wall!
Do you see it?
That's all.'

then walked off to a rousing hand clapping.

I've oft wondered if he realized he made such an impression on so many folks - Can anyone remember him?

I think it was Geordie Cameron who pointed out the spider.
