We are delighted to announce that the school have been awarded Gold status by Sport Scotland to recognise the excellent PE and Sporting opportunities available to our young people.
What is Sport Scotland Award?
The Sport Scotland School Sport Award is a national initiative designed to encourage schools to continuously improve the quality and quantity of physical education (PE) and school sport opportunities. Schools can be awarded with Bronze, Silver or Gold status.
A formal celebration has been scheduled for Monday 19 December where we will be presented with our Gold Award Flag. More details and photos of this event will be shared in the next Parent Newsletter.
