It was used as an art room for KGS at one point. I think I remember Keith Clements taking art here.

I remember doing art there in my second year of secondary (1960-61) with Mr Stewart Wilson from Fair Isle. (He later returned to Fair Isle as minister.)

My memory of being taught art in this hut is of the rather attractive teacher Miss Paterson! I wonder whatever happened to her

Yes it was used for art classes. I can remember going in to a class there just after lunchtime when we had heard that Buddy Holly had been killed. A sad day for some of us but the teacher had no idea who Buddy Holly was. Various art teachers taught us - Miss [Meg?] Paterson, Sylvia Wishart,Mr Gray [senior art teacher], Keith Clements.
