S1 Skipathon
On Tuesday 4 February all pupils in S1 took part in the annual Skipathon. In teams, the pupils skipped continuously for 3 periods without stopping (2 hour and 30 minutes). Pupils were also challenged to raise sponsorship money for their efforts—the class raising the most money would win the opportunity to enjoy a trip to Blackpool at the end of the school year.
A whopping grand total of £3200 was raised with the winning class being 1a9 who raised a phenomenal £586.70.
The following pupils also raised a substantial amount of money on their own and will also have the opportunity to go to Blackpool: Holly Edgar (1a1), Jemma Ure (1a2), Daniel Kelly (1a2), Megan McLaughlin (1a4), Diane Summers (1a4), Alexandra O’Donnell (1a4), Sean Nolan (1a5), Cara Reid (1a5), Anne-Cecilia Stewart (1a5), Aiden Campbell (1a7), Skye Stander (1a7), Matthew Crilly (1a8), Roisin Crumlish (1a8), Harry MacConnell (1a8), Rachel Moffat (1a8), Christopher Noble (1a8), Robbie Ferguson (1a9), Zofia Koryga (1a9), Ellie MacLean (1a9), Nicole Thomason (1a9), Lauren Docherty (1a10), Sophie Docherty (1a10), Cara Parker (1a10) and Mariella Ventisei (1a10) Well done to all pupils who participated on the day and contributed to the event.
All monies raised will benefit all of the pupils through the purchase of new P.E and sports equipment. New spin bikes and rowing machines have already been purchased and are now ready for use in the fitness suite. Well done to all of the pupils who took part and thanks to all friends and families for sponsoring the pupils.
