On Sunday 5th June, our intrepid Senior Management Team will take on their toughest challenge yet – 8 miles of gruelling, agonising walking all while sporting kilts.
To raise money for the school’s supported charity – the STV Appeal – Mr Hendry, Mr Will, Dr Campbell and Mr Dow will don traditional Scottish garb and take on the Aberdeen Kilt Walk, along with many others. To support the team, you can donate at their JustGiving page – and come along on the day to cheer them on!
Watch the trailer here:
Members of the Charities Committee will be coming round to tutor classes on Monday to sell tickets for the Lip Sync Battle Event which takes place next Thursday (24th) from 18:30-20:30 in the main hall.
Tickets are £2 each and all money collected will go towards the two charities that are being supported this year; The STV Appeal and Red International. Pupils from all year groups are welcome along with their family and friends. Staff also very welcome!!
We will also be selling tickets in the FONA shop at break times on Monday-Thursday.
The evening itself will be a mixture of showing pre-recorded lip sync videos submitted by seniors and staff members and live performances by our pupils.
We will also be selling raffle tickets on the night. We are very excited to say that we have an incredible top prize of a signed Aberdeen FC Shirt!
Please don’t hesitate to speak to Mr Rorie, Miss Dolan, any of the Charities Committee or myself for more information.

You didn’t ask for it….
No-one wanted it…
But they did it anyway!
It was lovely to receive two shoe boxes from former pupil Fraser Gow’s mum and grandma – more importantly, this is the first two points for Stewart house.
REMEMBER LAST DAY FOR DONATIONS IS MONDAY 16TH NOVEMBER
Special thanks to all who have donated, there will be more baubles on our giving Christmas tree tomorrow.
Please see the Packing Instructions for more detail about what should go into your shoe box
Following yesterday’s Act of Remembrance, staff and pupils are reminded that poppies will be available during tutor time on Monday and Tuesday this week through senior pupils.
The school will also observe a 2 minute silence at 11 am on Wednesday 11 November 2015.
Take a look in the dining hall ………….
The shoe box appeal is well on its way this year towards making a difference to some of the children around the world who won’t be opening any presents this year.
Each shoe box gifted will gain a house point – come on Macbeth, Wallace and Stewart 😉
All you need to do is work with your tutor teacher to fill a shoebox with gifts – how simple!
Huge thank you to Mr. Watt for his design and artistic awesomeness.
As part of today’s India Day Celebrations, a short quiz for use in tutor time has been produced.
