Last week we held our 3rd Taste of Buchan event at the Palace Hotel and it's fair to say it was another huge success!
First off, we want to say a huge thank you to the senior pupils, who took on the role of planning this event and done a fab job!
We want to say a massive thank you to two individuals who we would have been lost without in the preparation phase for Taste of Buchan!
Fiona Douglas and Rachel Smith, from our fantastic partnership with VisitAberdeenshire. They have been involved right from the start of Taste of Buchan, and to help us with this year's event, they held a retreat day at P&J Live, to give this year's class an insight about what planning an event really looks like. They also conducted face-to-face interviews with the pupils to see who would be best for each team and they made sure everyone fit into their role.
We also want to say a massive thank you to our sponsors, Dales Engineering Services Ltd, MKM Building Supplies, 3:16 AVI and Buchan Embroidery.
And last, but certainly not least, a massive thank you to all the local businesses that took part in our event -
