AUGUST INTAKE

Braidhurst High recently held a very productive meeting for parents of the new intake in August. Prior to the start of the meeting, Academy Uniform Company sold uniform. The rector, Mr Hannan, welcomed parents and outlined key aspects of the school while emphasising the desire for parents to become fully engaged and work with staff during their child’s time in the school. Ms Ruth Anderson, Depute in charge of the first two years, then outlined the timetable arrangements for the following two days visit to Braidhurst. The school also encouraged involvement in the Parent Teacher and Friends Association by welcoming new members.

COACHING SESSION

Around forty primary seven pupils who have been selected for the Scottish FA School of Football and Performance School of Football projects based in Braidhurst, recently attended an after-school training session where they worked with SFA coaches Paul Burns and Gordon Craig. This was a high intensity session allowing the players to sample what they might expect when they join the school in August. The pupils were also fitted for SFA kit which is provided and must be worn for the daily coaching sessions.
