Stewarton Academy Christmas Concert 2017

 

Stewarton Academy’s Annual Christmas Concert will take place this year on WEDNESDAY 20TH DECEMBER 2017 in the school Games Hall at 7pm.

Tickets are priced at £5.00/£3.00 (which includes light refreshments during interval) and are available from:

StewartonAcademyMusic.weebly.com.

Alternatively, pupils may purchase tickets from the Music Department during interval, or parents may purchase from the school office.

Thank you for your continued support an we look forward to seeing you there.

 

Staying hydrated in school

It is important that pupils are hydrated during school. Pupils are encouraged to bring a water bottle to the school which can be accessed during the school day (for the health and safety reasons there are exceptions i.e. Science, Computing etc). Water bottles can be refilled before school, during interval and at lunchtimes. In emergency situations, pupils can get access to water during lessons but we strongly encourage that this is kept to a minimum as it interrupts learning and teaching. Although being hydrated is important so too is being present in lessons to receive teacher input, to actively participate and to receive feedback on next steps.

Your support in this matter is very much appreciated.
