Word of the Week (Mrs MacKenzie)
Nonchalant
Definition: Someone described as nonchalant is relaxed and calm, either because they do not care about something or because they are not worried about something. Nonchalant can also be used to describe something, such as demeanour or behaviour, that expresses such relaxed, calm unconcern.
Example: The team showed a somewhat nonchalant attitude at the beginning of the season, but they became more serious once the championship was within reach.
Rights of the Fortnight (Mrs Young)
Article 27: Food, Clothing and a safe home
Fact: 60 children a day become homeless in Scotland.
