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.

STEM Virtual Work Experience (Miss Tennant)
