Rogart Primary School Parent Teachers Association's spooktacular Halloween party last Saturday was not for the faint-hearted, but the boisterous bash was enjoyed by all.

More than 30 children attended and sat down to a slap-up afternoon tea.

Community stalwarts Sandy Mackenzie and Ray Davie had the difficult task of judging the fancy dress and carved pumpkin competitions, but were more than up to the task.
