Cheerleading Team Shines in First Competition!

The King’s Park Cheerleading Team is an exciting new addition to our school, led by the dedicated Miss McKay. Since September, our young athletes have been training hard, learning the skills and discipline required for this dynamic sport.

For many of our team members, cheerleading was completely new. The first few weeks were all about mastering the fundamentals, building strength, and developing teamwork. However, their passion and dedication quickly became evident, inspiring us to enter them into the prestigious Scottish Schools Cheerleading Competition—the largest event of its kind in Scotland!

With months of rigorous training and determination, our team put together an incredible routine. Competing against 11 other schools in their division, they delivered a fantastic performance and secured an impressive 3rd place finish—bringing home a well-earned trophy!

The girls were incredibly proud of their achievement, especially after witnessing the high standard of competition throughout the day. We couldn’t be prouder of their hard work, team spirit, and commitment.

A huge congratulations to our Kings Park Cheerleaders—this is just the beginning of an exciting journey!

Sporting Success

A big well done to Grace McDermott in 2L1 who achieved a bronze medal in Acro Gymnastics at the Spelthorne Acro Cup at the weekend.

Well done to Grace and her partner Summer from East Kilbride Acro Gymasntics Club and good luck for the Scottish Championships in 2 weeks time.

School Values Logo Competition

Remember, the deadline to enter our School Values Logo Competition is the end of the school day tomorrow!

The logo must feature each of our school values – Kindness, Ambition, Respect and Equality. It should be bright, bold and easy to understand as it will represent our School Community.

Entries can be digital or hand rendered (drawn or painted).

Entries should be put into the Big Blue Box in Miss Joice’s room – (Rm 312, pictured below). Digital entries should be emailed to Miss Joice at gw24joicekatie@glow.sch.uk with your full name and class. The top entries will be selected by a committee following the February Weekend.

Thank you for your ideas!
