Our S3 Physics class recently visited the Camera Obscura and World of Illusions in Edinburgh.

Well done to our team of S3 and S4 girls who represented Sanquhar Academy at the Regional Enterprising Maths Challenge competition at Douglas Ewart High School last Thursday. The girls were a credit to the school and won the Engineering Round with the best bridge. A good time was had by all.
