A well done to all of our S1, S2 and S3 pupils who attended Netball last term. Everyone worked very hard and attendance was excellent!
The teams played various matches against other schools with most of the results being a victory!
We also managed to take the pupils to see a professional match in the new Emirates Arena, Glasgow to watch teams playing in the World Premier Club Challenge.
In this new term we are arranging more school matches and tournaments and hope for an exciting time ahead.
Netball starts back today, Monday, 14th January 2013. The club runs every Monday after school from 3.45 pm – 5 pm. We look forward to seeing all of our current members at training and we invite anyone new to come join us.
All ages and abilities are welcome! Don’t worry if you have never held a netball before… that’s what we are here for!
For details please come along on Monday or come and speak to Miss Grant (PE/Pupil Support), Miss McArdle (PE) or Miss Walker (Geography).
Thank you.
A group of our senior pupils carried out a litter pick in the local area in response to requests from local residents. We are keen to work in partnership with our local community and we have more litter picks planned for the new year.
Barrhead High School’s Rights Respecting School group organised a Dress As You Please day on Wednesday 19th December. Instead of paying money to come in casual dress, the school had their annual Christmas Can Collection and pupils and staff brought in a fantastic collection of cans and other dried goods. 
Thank you to our Art department and pupils who helped to create a wonderful festive window display for the charity shop Mary’s Meals. The design was also used for our annual Christmas card.
A group of our senior pupils, including Richard Barr, Christopher Buntin, Connor Donaghy, Andrew McLennan, David Dunwoodie, Fraser Black, Saud Khalil, Scott McCuish, Callum Aird, Dylan Jenks, Finlay Wright and Scott Wright, joined the Movember appeal and between them raised £732.02. Well done boys … and is is good to see your cleanshaven looks again!
Once again we were treated to a high standard of entertainment by pupils and staff as the S6 raised funds for their yearbook. They performed to a packed and enthusiastic audience which filled the school theatre. Acts ranged from singing to ballet and included star performances from the dinner ladies and the annual cameo appearance by Mr Shankland.
Attached are Xmas study plans for S4 and S5 & S6 students.
