Food is Free

Food is Free Carnoustie is a community building and gardening movement that has evolved from the Food is Free project which originally started in Austin, Texas but has now become a community movement around the world. Food is Free Carnoustie hopes to bring people together with the purpose of taking neglected spaces and gardens and turning them into community gardens which then provides free harvests to anyone. Once the fruit and veg is ready, it will be harvested and displayed in various public places around the town and offered free to anyone who wants it….yes that’s right FREE.

Scottish Primary School Cross Country Championships 2016

Delancey UK Schools Chess Challenge – Megafinal

This tournament took place in Aberdeen, Albyne School, on the 1st of May 2016 and had the top players from Scotland. There were six rounds and me and my brother won three of them and drew once giving us both 3.5 points out of six. We needed four out of six to qualify for the British championship, so we just missed out by half a point. We both won rosettes and my brother got a chess book for coming second in his age group. Most of the people there were from Albyne school.
I beat the oldest person there who was 17.
