Spring Photo Competition

Since the weather in the past week has seemed anything but ‘Spring like’, we have decided to extend our Spring Photo Competition to give you the chance to capture a shot on a slightly more Spring like day!

Closing date will now be Friday 26 March.

Please upload your picture to the One Drive below:

Good luck and get snapping!!

House competition

You may have noticed a few signs that spring is on its way. The days are getting a little longer, you may even have noticed spring flowers starting to poke through in the garden or in the park. These are promising signs of the end of what has surely been a long and difficult winter!

Let’s see if you can capture some of these signs of spring in a photograph!

We will run a House competition from now until Sunday 14 March during which we would like you to pay attention when you are out for your much needed daily walk. Look around you for an image that could capture ‘Spring‘ and upload your picture to the One Drive folder below:

Please save your images with the file name: First Name_Surname_Year Group (for example Sam_Smith_S1)

At the closing date your House Captains will collect images taken by members of their house to create an i-movie so that Mr. Clark can judge the best collective House effort, as well as judging the top 3 individual photos.

There will be House Points up for grabs for the top 3 individual photographs and also for the best collective House i-movie.

Good Luck!

HIGHER VISION

Heather was one of the Higher Photography candidates whose work was selected for the Higher Vision Exhibition currently displayed at the Scottish Parliament. Higher Vision showcases some of the best images taken by 26 students from schools and colleges all over the country who have completed SQA’s Higher Photography course over the past year. Heather’s work was also selected for the front cover of the exhibition catalogue.

The exhibition celebrating the talent and creativity of Higher Photography candidates is now open at the Scottish Parliament. The exhibition is on display in the Parliament’s Main Hall until Friday 8 February 2019, and entry is free.
