Respect for Self, Others, and Learning

101. Blue Bulletin – Wednesday 21/04/21

WEDNESDAY 21 APRIL

Hot Meal: Minestrone soup, Roast chicken and gravy, potatoes and vegetables.

SDS Careers Advisers (Mrs Lautredou)
SDS Careers Advisers are back in school and ready to catch up with pupils. We will be sending out appointments but please come and see us particularly if you are leaving school or thinking about leaving and don’t have anything lined up – we can help!

S6 Prom (Mr Fulton)
Unfortunately, the decision has been made to cancel the prom once again. While the current situation is improving, it is very unlikely to be the case that the restrictions will have improved enough in 8 weeks time for over 100 people to gather legally and safely in such close proximity. The decision has been taken now in the hope that no one has begun preparations too soon. As well as yourselves, we are also keen to give the venue enough notice too. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to get in touch.

Mr Sanderson’s S4 Classes (Mr Sanderson)
Mr Sanderson will be offering two sessions on answering history skills questions this week for his two S4 classes on Wednesday and Thursday (B9 at 3:15-4:15pm). Both sessions will be the same to allow for everyone to be able to attend. Any questions please come and see Mr Sanderson.

Ramadan 2021 (KHS Equalities Group)
Ramadan Kareem KHS! We would like to support everyone observing Ramadan this year. We realise Ramadan can be a difficult yet reflective time for Muslims so we would like to offer you a little bit of a sanctuary using Ms Mahr’s room in the first instance! If you need some quiet time for reflection or just need some time away from the food in the dinner hall, please head up to C12 during lunch and break for the duration of Ramadan and Ms Mahr will help you out! You are more than welcome to bring friends who are not fasting as well.

If any pupils feel as though they would like to pray starting from Thursday 15 April there will be a room available. The room is located next to Mr Allan’s office, where the operations room is. If you walk into there and instead of walking straight you turn to your second right, there is a small room where a prayer mat will be laid out and there is a sink to do wudhu as well. There will also be tasbih’s and Surah Yaseen available too. If anyone can’t find the room or has any questions, please ask Ramiza (S5) or Alisha (S2), thanks!
