Thank you to all the parents and friends who came along to support our showcase of the Mid Summer Mela.
The staff and pupils have been working very hard for the last few weeks preparing for this big event and lots of new skills have been gained.
I’m sure you will all agree it was a wonderful experience to see all the pupils performing, from Macbeth to Bollywood Reels on Wheels and an African journey.
A special thanks to the girls from the Woodfarm Bollywood Dance Crew who supported our young people and helped to choreograph one of the dances.
Yesterday we were very fortunate to have a visit from Martin Myers who was one of the Olympic torch bearers. He came along to talk to us about his experience and show off the real Olympic Torch.
Everyone was excited to meet Martin and hear his story, of how he was selected to run with the torch. Afterwards we all got the chance to hold the torch and have our photograph taken.
We are celebrating our summer Mela today. We will be participating in activites such as African storytelling, Russian cookery and American line dancing.
This afternoon we are holding a showcase event which parents and friends are invited to come watch. This gives our pupils the opportunity to highlight all the hard work they have been participating in over the last term.
So come along to IMS at 1.15pm for some Shakespeare, Bollywood dancing, human animations and more…….. .
The rain came and stayed with us at Ardentinny……………. but it never stoppped the fun and new friendships being formed with our buddies from Williamwood, St Ninian’s, Eastwood, Mearns Castle, Woodfarm and St Luke’s High schools.
The Make Your Dreams True 8 weekend was a great success and lots of new skills were gained from activities such as team building, archery, gorge walking, canoeing and rock hopping and everyone left the weekend with a great sense of satisfaction and excitement.
Once again the disco and talent show were shown to amongst the favourite activities.
The Williamood buddies thought the disco was the best ever……….. the dance floor being full from the first dance till the last dance with Fabio showing them some of his moves!
Good luck to senior pupils and buddies from the local mainstream schools who are off to Ardentinny for the annual “Make Your Dreams Come True 8” weekend.
It will be a great adventure for the pupils with, sailing, rock hopping and archery a few of the activities to mention. But not to forget the talent show and the legendary disco!
