On Saturday, Fraser (s6) and Victoria (s5) McKinlay participated in the 3 peak “Challenge Arrochar” to raise money for the Beatson Cancer Research Centre. It was a 11 mile hike covering 6,250 feet which they completed in just under 7 hours. The routes chosen for the event were Ben Narnain, Ben Ime and The Cobbler. They have now raised just under five thousand pounds.
Well done to both pupils.
Congratulations to Scott Miller and Victoria Groom on their appointments to Head Boy and Head Girl.
