This week we enjoyed a visit from ‘The Young Team’ author Graeme Armstrong. Graeme talked to us about his early years growing up in Airdrie, the adverse childhood experiences which affected him and his eventual route into a life of gangs, alcohol and drug addiction. Graemes story is profound, almost harrowing at times and his determination and bravery to escape this life can only be described as heroic. Our pupils thoroughly enjoyed spending time with Graeme and are very grateful for the books he autographed for them.
