Wilbur & Niso Smith Foundation Author of Tomorrow Award Shortlist
Congratulations to Finlay (S3) for being shortlisted in the final 3 for this prestigious award in his age category out of over 600 entries from all over the world.
While Finlay did not win the overall award for his short story, being shortlisted in a field of writers from Australia, Columbia, Canada, South Africa and Kenya among others is a fantastic achievement.
His story will now be published in an anthology called Robots, Rebels and the Resistance along with the other shortlisted stories (there are 10 stories in total across all the age categories). It will be available on the Worldreader website.
Well done Finlay!
Pupil School Photographs – Monday 14 September 2020
The School Photographer will be in school on Monday 14 September to take individual pupil photographs for S1, S3, S5 & S6 year groups.

THE MEARNS TIMES
In order to maintain the schools strong links with Mearns House Care Home during the current situation, Mr McKee and pupils from Personal Development, led by Sam in S3, have created the ‘Mearns Times’.
This newspaper is distributed twice a week and contains stories, quizzes and puzzles to keep the residents entertained. Crucially, these are all good news stories and aim to stimulate discussion. Feedback has been great so far with the Activities Coordinator saying:
“Thanks so much for this once again and we are delighted you are able to keep it going. The Sudoku was a great idea and some of the residents love it!”
This Friday, 4th September, will see issue 22 distributed, a great effort by all.
