Welcome Back!

We hope you all had a wonderful Easter break! It’s been fantastic to have everyone back, and what a week it’s been.

Exciting Activities for Our Senior Pupils

Our senior students have had an action-packed week experiencing some brilliant activities. Several pupils visited the local police station and speaking to different police officers.  They also took part in the MAAP programme at Pinkston. The highlight for many was getting outdoors—the beautiful weather this week made these experiences even more special!

Mrs Murray is Back!

We’re delighted to welcome back Mrs Murray, who has now returned. It’s wonderful to have her back with the children.

Creative Talents on Display

One of our S3 pupils has been showcasing some impressive creativity this week, designing and creating his own board games. We hear he’s been unbeatable—even our staff members have struggled to beat him! A fantastic effort.

Save the Date: Summer Festival

Mark your calendars! Planning is underway for this year’s Summer Festival, and we’re excited to announce a new date and time:

Friday, 29th May | 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM

More details coming soon!

It’s been a great week back, and the lovely weather has made it even better. We’re looking forward to what’s ahead!

We are pleased to be running our Virtual Summer School again this year. This programme offers students interested in studying law the opportunity to learn more about the subject and ask questions about legal careers.

This year, rather than running the Summer School over four consecutive days, sessions will take place across four mornings over two separate weeks:

• Monday 8 June
• Tuesday 9 June
• Thursday 18 June
• Friday 19 June

Students can register their interest by emailing careers@lawscot.org.uk. We will then circulate an MS Form for formal registration. Once registered, participants will receive two Zoom links: one for the sessions on 8 and 9 June, and another for 18 and 19 June.

What we’ll cover

Our programme is currently being finalised, but the first session, Introduction to Law and University Applications, will be of particular interest to your students. We’ll cover UCAS applications, SAAS, and more!

The other days will have a focus on what is happening now in the legal profession, taking students on a career journey exploring the unexpected and interesting areas you can practice law in Scotland.

Logistics

If multiple students from your institution are participating, we have found in previous years that reserving a classroom or suitable shared space is helpful. This supports accessibility (whether joining via a shared device or interactive screen) and allows students to take part in breakout discussions together.

What a fantastic day celebrating our incredible Class of 2026. We would like to wish all of our leavers every success as they begin the next chapter of their journey. We are so proud of how far you have come and excited to see all that you will go on to achieve in the future.

We also want to say a very happy holiday to all our young people, staff, partners, and families. We hope everyone enjoys a well-deserved rest and some relaxation. Best of luck to our seniors who will be spending the coming weeks preparing for their Qualifications Scotland exams.

We look forward to welcoming S1–S3 pupils and staff back to school on Monday 20th April.

Thank you to everyone for a wonderful term at KPSS, and once again, congratulations to the King’s Park Secondary Class of 2026!

Two Weeks of Fun, Fitness & Fresh Air!

It’s been an absolutely brilliant couple of weeks here at the Caledonia Centre! Our pupils have been making the most of Week 30 and 31 with some fantastic activities that have kept everyone engaged, active, and smiling.

Boxing with Southside Boxing Academy

We’re absolutely thrilled to continue our boxing programme with the amazing team from Southside Boxing Academy & Community Hub. Over these two weeks, our pupils have been learning valuable boxing techniques, building confidence, and developing real friendships with their instructors.

Fun in the Sun at Kings Park

When the weather has been kind, we’ve ventured out to the beautiful Kings Park for some well-deserved outdoor fun! Fresh air, sunshine, and open spaces have done wonders for our pupils’ wellbeing.

Gym Hall Games Fun

Our pupils have been having a brilliant time in the gym hall, playing a variety of games and enjoying themselves while staying active and energised.

Radio Club Fun

One of our pupils has been having an absolute blast at his radio club over these past two weeks, enhancing his interests and making brilliant connections with like-minded enthusiasts. It’s fantastic to see our young people exploring their passions and developing new skills outside the centre!

S4 School Car Wash

Well done to our S4 pupils who have been working hard on a school car wash! Their hard work, enthusiasm, and teamwork have been brilliant to witness. Great effort, team!

Design & Manufacture Success

One of our S3 pupils has created a beautiful handmade candle during their Design and Manufacture class—a fantastic example of creativity and practical skill-building in action!

A Special Message to Our S6 Pupils

Today is a bittersweet day as we say goodbye to our S6 pupils who are leaving us for the final time. As you move forward into the next chapter of your lives, we wish you every success and happiness.
