Our Geography Trip to the Isle of Aaran
Last month, the Higher Geography class were very lucky once again and had the opportunity to go on another field trip. This time it was a daytrip to the beautiful Isle of Aaran. The aim was to learn more about rivers and carry out a few field studies in and around them, and of course, to admire the wonderful geographical scenery that the island has to offer. In this article, I’ll tell you all about my experiences with my Geography class on this fun day out. It was an early start that day as we left Clydeview Academy at 8:00amFun at Children in Need Day
This year for Children in Need, Clydeview Academy had a pyjama day, or come as you please if you didn’t want to wear jammies, and there were many exciting events taking place. During lunchtime, pupils could go to the assembly hall to watch people have their legs waxed, or get their own legs done, and watch S6s getting their heads shaved (to varying results). They could also go outside and pay to throw sponges at a wide range of teachers The head shaving was the flagship event by far, with multiple S6s lining up.

Clydeview’s Halloween Bonanza
This frightful Halloween, Clydeview Academy was host to a spectacular Halloween Bonanza to remember, open to all S1 pupils. The night was mostly hosted by our S6 students, and was divided into six different stations which were Disgusting Dissections, Fake Trick-or-Treating, Biscuit Decorating, The Haunted Corridor, Ghoulish Games, and Zombie Zumba. The night was very busy, with six large groups of first years moving around the different stations in fifteen-minute slots. Over at Disgusting Dissections, we had two ‘dead bodies’ lying on a table, while a mad scientist – Professor Nefarious – told the horrifying story about how they died.Latest News
