Thank you to everyone for participating in this years activities.

 

World Book Day 2017

It’s been a busy week at IMS as we celebrate World Book Day.

All classes were invited to the Mod to browse and buy some of the books from Usbournes, their was a hype of activity as they made decisions of which books to buy for class.

Class Mull loved to look at all the books but it was such a hard decision to choose one to take back to class.

Clasd Arran had a lovely visit to Waterstones, Newton Mearns for a story telling session from the staff. Thank you for taking the time out to read us some stories. Our Head Boy Rob, was totally immersed in all the books and loved the stories. Olivia and Peter were delighted with the visual aids to support the stories.

Cassie visits IMS

Thank you to Cassie, one of our Isobel Mair School  graduates who visited the Thursday ISS@IMS group this afternoon.

Cassie chatted to the students about how she has completed supported colleges courses and is now  on a fulltime beauty course.
She discussed what it’s like to be at college and the great support she got from staff and friends.

She offered beauty treatments to the girls and they were all delighted with their manicures.

Holocaust Memorial day

Today we welcomed Carol Gillespie, HMDT National Support Worker, Scotland as we marked Holocaust memorial Day.

This year Carol arranged for our visitor Saskia Tepe to  share her story to mark Holocaust Memorial Day.

Saskia has written a book about her mother’s remarkable story  as she survived the holocaust and shared a question and answer session with some of our senior pupils before lighting the Holocaust Memorial Candle.
