Reminder to all S1 pupils that the World Book Day Event takes place on Wednesday 29 February during P5 and P6.
We would like all S1 pupils to dress up as a character from a book/comic/graphic novel or film/TV adaptation and take part in the fancy dress competition and Big Book House Quiz.
Pupils should not wear their costumes to school in the morning – costumes can be left in the library before school starts and picked up again at lunchtime.
The winner of the latest Famous Moment in Lego was Chris Conway of S4 who correctly identified the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. Could Chris please come and see Miss Thomson in F9 to collect his prize, a £15 i-tunes voucher.
Well done to all the other pupils and staff who got the correct answer.
This month’s Famous Moment in History is now available
If you think you know what it represents then tell any Social Studies teacher.

The January Moment in Lego competition is now up and running so look out for the posters in Social Subjects rooms, in the corridors and on the website. Good luck!
After a successful release of over 600 balloons on a wet and windy afternoon we have now reached the closing date for the return of balloon race tickets.
It is with great pleasure that we now announce James Stirling in S5 as our winner. His Balloon was found over 120 miles away in Bowsden, Berwick Upon-Tweed.
We would like to express our gratitude to Mrs Norma Wilson who returned the ticket from the winning balloon.
Great credit is also deserved by the group of S6 girls (Iona, Connie and Eleanor) whose hard work made this year’s Balloon Race the most successful ever. Well done girls!
Congratulations and well done once again to James who will now be flying “Up, Up and Away” with 2 return tickets to one of the fantastic destinations courtesy of British Airways.
