2nd year
A reminder to all S2 Parents & Carers:
Our S2 Pathways Information Meeting takes place on Tuesday, 3rd March 2020 from 7pm.
Information will be provided on the options available to S2 pupils as they prepare to choose their subjects for S3.
We look forward to welcoming you to the 3rd March.
Parents of pupils in S1 & S2, as well as parents of pupils in P6 & P7 in our associated primary schools, have been invited to come in to school to see what school life is like for their young people in the new school.
The evening will commence at 7 pm in the Games Hall. From there parents will go in groups to 3 different areas of the school to get a taste of school life and find out what pupils are doing in the classroom. Everybody will then return to the Games Hall and some of our ‘PE’ pupils will entertain us.
During the evening, there will also be musical contributions and displays showing other aspects of school life.
I look forward to meeting you on the evening.

Our S1 students are taking part in the Rapid Response Challenge today.
Rapid Response is ideally suited to Curriculum for Excellence as an interdisciplinary project which challenges pupils to consider the importance of STEM subjects – Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.
Students compete in groups of 6 completing a variety of problem-solving tasks including purifying water, building shelters and transporting water.
Here’s hoping the weather holds!
S2 pupils have also been working hard to create DIY volcanoes. This year saw some of our best ever entries; we had cakes, explosions and cross-sections!
All the volcanoes were of a very high standard and fitted the brief – to have the correct outer shape and colouring of a volcano, with some also showing the volcano’s inner structure.
A big thanks to all the mums, dads, carers, grans and papas for all their support (and putting up with the mess!)

Hard lines to the S1/2 football team who in spite of their best efforts lost 11-1 against a strong S2 St Luke’s team.
Despite being behind and up against it for the whole game, effort levels did not drop nor did the standard of behaviour on the pitch.
Hard lines boys.
Man of the Match: Ryan Dobbins who despite playing out of position produced a solid display, well done.
