We are delighted to see the work of S2 pupils culminate in a fabulous stain glass window that has been designed and installed by stain glass artist Alec Galloway.  The window has been installed  in the school forum and is a great centre piece for this busy area of the school.  The pupils drawings explored the theme of ‘Creation’ and have been transferred onto the glass using a specialist screen printing technique.  We are all loving the results, well done S2!

Here are a few photographs of the window being installed.  We hope to have a celebration of the work involved in the new term, stay posted for details!

Our S6 advanced higher pupils completed a community placement at Glenwood Nursery led by Miss Howard.  Pupils helped the nursery pupils and staff to put together a 3D relief mural based on the season.  The relief panels were put in place for the opening exhibition on  Thursday the 20th of June.  Also on display was all the work produced by the nursery pupils exploring the seasons through colour and texture.  A fantastic effort by all involved, well done.  Miss Howard’s photos can be viewed through the following link.
