Comic Book Club
Huzzah! Comic Book Club will be making a triumphant return this year with even more superhero action.
If you are interesting in any of the following – comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime, horror, fantasy, science-fiction, video games, and just all round general geekery – then comic book club is right for you.
We are a nice wee bunch who are always looking for new members. If you’re thinking about joining the Justice League of Mearns Castle, pop along to room B8 in the English corridor every Wednesday for fun, food and fighting the forces of evil. Can’t wait to see you all there.
Chess Club
The chess club will meet on Thursday lunchtime at 12.30 in Room F7. Bring your lunch with you.
The club is open to pupils of all ages and stages, from experienced players to beginners who are interested in learning how to play.
New members will be made most welcome, and we particularly look forward to meeting new S1 pupils
