Unfortunately due to the school being used as a polling station for the election we are unable to go ahead this year with our Christmas concert.
We are all extremely disappointed as rehearsals have been going well and this is always a highlight in our school year. We did look at the possibility of alternative venues but the logistics of transporting pupils and equipment along with creating rehearsal time at the venue were proving too difficult especially during exam time for pupils. Alternative dates were also considered but not feasible at this busy time of year. We will be looking to see how we can create additional ways of showcasing our young peoples’ talent in the new year.

The University of Glasgow recently visited the school on Wednesday 30th October to deliver their Early Secondary Programme to our S1-S3 pupils in the assembly hall. Pupils participated in a series of workshops geared to get them thinking about their future employment and helping them to make informed subject choices to ensure they all reach positive post school destinations.
Former pupil Tam Cowan visited the school last week on Friday 1st November to be interviewed by our budding S6 journalist Jay Blakeway. Tam happily answered all of Jay’s questions about his career as a writer and presenter whilst also offering some invaluable advice about the industry and how to break into it. Tam and Jay were pictured in-front of the school’s fantastic developing the young workforce wall display in the school foyer.
On Saturday 2nd November the Malawi committee, led by P.E teacher and Malawi co-ordinator, Ms. Young, hosted a very successful race night. The event was well attended with parents and friends of the school raising essential money for such a worthwhile cause.
The S1 basketball team were in action on Wednesday 30th October against Caldervale High School and after a tremendous effort on the court won their match.
The school hosted a very successful open evening on Tuesday 22nd October. This event invited parents/carers and pupils from our cluster primary schools and current S1 and S2 year group and aimed to highlight what Braidhurst can offer young people in terms of their education, the wider school community and also the steps the school are taking to ensure that our pupils reach a positive destination when they leave.
Those in attendance began their evening in the school assembly hall where they could speak with staff and find out information on a variety of topics, including school clubs, our developing the young workforce programme, and pastoral support.
Groups were then taken on a guided tour of the school by senior pupils with parents/carers and pupils visiting departments and discover what pupils experience in each area of the school.
