Edina Hibs Link
As part of the Active Schools Programme Castlebrae High School and Castleview Primary School have linked up with Edina Hibs Football Club.
The idea behind this partnership is to create a pathway for pupils to progress from school to club level football. Edina Hibs are an inclusive club and encourage parents to make contact with their lead coach at relevant youth age group. Pupils can then attend their weekly training sessions and take part in weekend matches.
Contact sheets can be obtained from
Alan Reid, Active Schools Co-Ordinator.
Congratulations! New Sports Leaders
This October saw ten pupils graduate in their Sports Leader Award. The Sports Leader Award is intended to encourage people to volunteer to become coaches and organisers of sport in their communities. The scheme is designed to help people of all ages to develop their sporting interests so that they are better qualified to offer their services as coaches and organisers. At the same time it makes it possible for participants to develop their own self confidence and leadership qualities, both of which can make all the difference to young people when it comes to finding a job. Castlebrae also trained Sports Leaders from Holyrood, Trinity and Drummond. The students who graduated are as follows Josh Lawrie, Kevin Finlay, Gerry Gellantes, Jamie Clunie, Kelly Lockhart, Ben Stobbart, Callum Kerr, Mark Petretti, Hassan Waheel and Ryan Mae pictured with Alan Reid and Glyn Jones. Our sports leaders will have the opportunity to take part in the ‘Dreams and Teams’ South African school link.
