On Saturday 13th October between 9.30 and 11.30, the Paralympic torch is coming to the Sainsbury’s store at Darnley. This is your chance to have your photo taken along with the torch.
Sainsbury’s were very keen to ensure Mearns Castle pupils had this opportunity given our very close connections with all things Paralympic!
Mearns Castle held a Paralympics Party tonight to support Andrew Mullen in his third Paralympic final.
Over 200 pupils and staff cheered Andrew on in his London final.
