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.
Well done to Matthew and Mariella who represented the school at the Rotary’s Young Musician event.
One of our dedicated S1s, Georgie, attended the Maths Circle at Edinburgh University this weekend where she enjoyed tackling various challenging maths and logic puzzles, including the Towers of Hanoi in this picture. Georgie is looking forward to taking part in various other mathematical enrichment opportunities in the future.
On Tuesday Bogdan, Erin, Robyn and Abigail did a great job representing the school and, indeed, East Ayrshire at the Enterprising Maths National Final. They had fun exploring the science centre at lunchtime, even challenging Mr Craig to a game of 4-way air hockey!
