And the room to the right?

At this point I think the room on the right was a store. Previously I was in the room on the left for Primary 6A with George Marshall and at that time the other room was 6B - Emily Logie/Kirkness I think. The third room on the extreme right was always the commercial room in my memory. After the Primary moved to their new school the left hand room became the music room and the middle room a store I think.
