Come & Try Disc Golf Event (Mr Greenhorn)
Cluny Clays have offered 16 spaces for any interested Kirkcaldy High School pupils to take part in 9-hole disc golf on Thursday 9 June, 4:00-6:00pm. ‘Disc Golf’ is played like traditional golf. Instead of hitting a ball with a club, players throw a Disc, think Frisbee. To complete a hole, it’s not a ball into a cup, it’s a disc into a basket. If you’re interested and would like to take part, please complete the form and I’ll be in touch to confirm your space.

LGBT+ Groups Disco (Dr Murray)
The combined Fife Schools LGBT+ Groups are having a disco on Sunday 19 June 12:00pm – 2:00pm. We’ll be taking the minibus from KHS – it’s FREE and ANYONE is welcome. If you fancy coming along see Dr Murray in A4 for a permission form!

Tickets can also be purchased using cash at the school office in addition to the iPayimpact option. Alternatively you can pick up a ticket on the evening of the show subject to availability.

DYW Padlet (Mrs Whyte)
This week on the Padlet there are Apprenticeships in NHS Fife as a Pharmacy Technicians. If you are thinking of a job in medicine there are also upcoming Medicine Open days at St Andrews and Aberdeen; we have school contacts for other experiences. Lots of local businesses are hiring including B & M, Young Spuds, Lidl and in Care roles.
