Winners of Junior Master Chef 2013

Masterchef Winners 2013

The winners of Junior Master Chef 2013 are Anna Smith and Alice Gray. They produced a beautiful Lemon Soufflé with a Raspberry Coulis which really impressed the judges.

Anna and Alice’s Lemon Soufflé will be produced in the school canteen for Mearns Castle pupils to sample. It will also be added to the Red Onion Restaurants lunch menu and Anna and Alice will receive vouchers to dine there.

All of the twelve finalists produced superb dishes and it was not an easy decision for the judges. All twelve finalists will receive a Golden Dinner ticket for the week that Anna and Alice’s Soufflé is on the menu.

Bleep Test Challenge Club

After a better attendance last week with 14 runners, we were back down to only 5 this week.  I am hoping that most of you just forgot and that I will see you again next time!  I am still looking to achieve the heights of our first week with 36 runners!  Come on back this Wednesday lunchtime.

Last week we welcomed a new staff member to the club, Mr Hamilton (Maths).  Congratulations to him on his impressive first run of 11.5.

Well done to everyone for taking part again these last two weeks.  Particular congratulations to the following pupils for improving their best ever scores last week:

Oliver Grieve (S1) went from 10.3 to 10.5

James Howard (S2) went from 7.7 to 8.1

Laurence Ng (S2) went from 6.7 to 7.5

Chris Griffiths (S3) went from 8.11 to 9.4

Emma Park (S3) went from 6.2 to 6.4

Further congratulations to Oliver Grieve (S1), Lewis Bond (S2) and Greig MacKay (S2) who have made all 4 weeks of the club and are leading the ‘Most Consistent Attendance’ leaderboard.  I look forward to seeing more pupils and staff at club on Wednesday 22nd May at
