Any S3 student still looking to register for Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award should see Mr Boag ASAP.
If you have already added your name to Mr Boag’s spreadsheet, then the next step is to pay £46 through Parent Pay. This should be setup in the next few days.

Our latest S4 School Supported Study timetable has been published today.
We are aiming to drive up the number of students attending each session, so please encourage your child to attend as many sessions as they can.
To all S3 Duke of Edinburgh students: Our DOFE Parents & Carer Information evening will take place on Monday, 10th October @ 7pm.
All students should now have access to our new S3 DOFE Google Classroom (GC), and the online meeting will take place using the posted link in the Google Classroom.
The main focus of the meeting is to familiarise parents/carers with the requirements of the Bronze DOFE Award, including costs and timescales.
It is imperative that students do not attend this meeting by themselves. Typically, students that are supported at home, and in school, go on to achieve the Bronze DOFE Award. We, therefore, request that students join the meeting accompanied with a parent or carer.
Still time to join
If any S3 student has not had a chance to sign-up for DOFE, they should see Mr Boag ASAP. Our first student DOFE meeting will be held on Thursday, 6th October at 3.35pm. All S3 students wishing to undertake DOFE this year should attend this meeting.
