On Monday, 31 August S2 and S3 pupils visited the Edinburgh Book Festival to hear author Matt Whyman talk about his books and what inspired him.
Pupils had the opportunity to browse in the bookshop and have their lunch in beautiful (and sunny) gardens within the Book Festival grounds, before taking their front row seats in the auditorium. Many pupils bought Matt Whyman’s books and got them signed by him at the end of his session.
Here are some views from the pupils:
‘I really enjoyed the experience. Everyone was really friendly and always had a smile on their face.’
‘The Edinburgh Book Festival was brilliant.’
‘I loved hearing about Matt Whyman’s book, especially ‘The Savages’ because it sounds very good.
Our parent council intends to hold a number of meetings throughout the coming session. Please see further details below.

Good luck to our S2 and S3 students who will attend the Edinburgh Book Festival on Monday, 31st August.

Congratulations to Ailish (and Heather Bingham) who recently competed in the Scottish Synchronized Swimming Club Championships as members of Clydebank Synchronized Swimming Club.
This is a club championship where all ages/skills compete in each section with the aim of getting the best place possible to accumulate club points. 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in each section additionally get medals so Ailish and Heather had to compete with the senior skill swimmers for any medal places.
Clydebank brought back the trophy for the third consecutive year, so are once again Scottish Club Champions coming home with the Mary Black Rosebowl.
Ailish and Heather were delighted to get a silver medal for their trio, Ailish was placed 4th for her first ever duet and her team placed 5th (their senior team getting 1st).
Well done to both girls on their achievements.
