At the beginning of the year, South Ayrshire Council, in partnership with Police Scotland, reached out to all Campus Officers in Ayrshire to arrange pupils to design poster for the Safer Shores Campaign. Kilmarnock Academy submitted 7 posters. Out of all the entries, Brooke’s design was chosen as the winner. Her poster will be used throughout Ayrshire to promote ‘Safer Shores’ within Ayrshire. Well done, Brooke!
Huge congratulations to our newly-appointed S3 Prefects! They will complete training next week along with shadowing S6 Prefects before taking up their new roles during study leave.
Our S2 handball team played in the National Handball Finals at Ravenscraig Sports Centre. 11 teams from across Scotland made it to the finals. The S2 team played 5 matches in total, finishing in 4th place.
Well done to Poppy in 1O2 who competed at the Scottish Schools National Swimming Finals in Aberdeen.
Poppy did so well, having never competed in a 50 meter pool before. In the heat, she got a personal best and qualified for the 50m fly National final, where she finished in 8th place.
She loved competing and representing Kilmarnock Academy at her first ever National event.
