Many thanks to English, Art and Music Departments who provided such beautiful evocations of the work of Robert Burns.
Our pupils art work, singing, piping, recitation and all round creativity was quite outstanding; the front foyer has never looked so resplendent.
Congratulations to all involved.
On Friday 18th January, over forty S5 students took part in a residential Study Weekend at Rowardennan Youth Hostel. The weekend was designed to support our 3+Higher candidates in preparing for their Prelim Exams.
Students benefitted from a wide range of small group tutorials over the course of the weekend. Subject specialists delivered sessions in the following areas- English, Maths, French, Geography, History, Modern Studies, Music, Drama, Physics, Biology and Health and Food Technology. Pupils also had the opportunity to participate in Study Skills workshops. Our students enjoyed a quality programme of intensive study in each of these areas.
Despite a very busy timetable, a good time was had by all. Our students were an absolute credit to themselves, their families and the school. Feedback from staff and pupils has been extremely positive and S5 are already asking when the next Study Weekend is. Planning has now begun for next year. For more photos click here.

Brigadoon are delighted to announce our first EP released today!!!! The EP includes 3 original songs written by Findlay MacMillan (S5) one of which is his very own Christmas Song “That time of year”.
After a lengthy recording process we are delighted with the final production on the EP. We would love it if you were able to support the band as the costs of hiring a professional studio were large!!
We are selling the EP for only £4 the EP which contains 3 originals and the Christmas bonus track – what a bargain!
If you would like a copy could you please contact Mrs MacVicar, Performing Arts Faculty directly or via the School Office – 0141 582 0180.
Our new Christmas tree in the front hall has been donated to the school by the Parent Council. They have asked that, if possible, it is part of our Advent and Christmas preparations for the last two weeks of term.
I am grateful to the Parent Council for their generous gift.
Mrs Lennon (Head Teacher)
Congratulations to all pupils and staff who performed and supported the success of the Christmas Concert last night.
It was a wonderful celebration however this is not possible without the hard work and dedication from pupils and staff.
Sincest thanks is also extended to the parents, friends and supporters of the school for braving the winter elements to attend.
