Glenshee

Last Thursday p7s came back from Glenshee. They had an amazing time there. These are some of the activities that they were doing. – raft building , rock climbing ,and they even did some arts and crafts . Staff at the Compass Christian Centre commented on the good behaviour of the p7s and on how well they co operated with each other.

The boys had to go up a lot of steps to get to their rooms and so did the girls. The teachers that went there were  Mrs McIntosh, Mr Wood, Mr Scrimshaw and Miss Philp Smith.  They all  had an amazing time there.
