Our information evening will take place on Thursday the 15th of May at 7pm in the school lecture theatre.  Details along with all paperwork required for the trip should be collected from Miss McCarley in the Art Department.  All pupils are asked to collect this before the Easter break.

Miss Howard’s S1 class showed off their screen prints that they finished last week – love these!

Congratulations to Azraa Abdulai on being nominated as Ms Kelly’s Pupil of the Month, great work!

Ms Kelly’s class celebrated finishing their headpieces this morning with a wee tea party, looks like great fun!

Congratulations to Miss McCarley’s S6 pupil Monika Barcz who has been awarded Pupil of the Month, what an eye for detail!  We love this architectural model in progress, looking forward to seeing it finished.

Miss Howard struggled to pick just one pupil of the month due to the number of outstanding pupils that she has, so this month she has nominated six pupils – well done to each of you!

…finally made it outside for some outdoor shots capturing the late afternoon sunlight perfectly!
