POWER OF YET WORKSHOPS

The school recently ran a series of ‘Power of Yet’ workshops delivered by ‘Live n Learn’ to our S2 pupils. ‘Live n Learn’ are a team of specialist presenters who focus on the development of young minds through a mantra of contrast improvement. The ‘Power of Yet’ sessions are very valuable as they raise aspirations, help pupils embrace struggle, teach them to cope with setbacks and give them the impetus to believe in themselves.

PANTOMIME REWARD TRIP

Over 200 Braidhurst pupils were rewarded for their continued exemplary behaviour and effort at school with a rewards trip, just before Christmas, to the ‘Cinderella’ pantomime at the SEC Armadillo in Glasgow on Thursday 20th December. The rewards trip was another success with all pupils and staff thoroughly enjoying the performance.

LINE DANCING

On Wednesday 19th December the school hosted its annual inter-house line dancing competition in the assembly hall. The event was fiercely contested, with pupils from each house group having practised their moves in the weeks leading up to the dance-off. However, on the day it was Rannoch house who impressed the judges, Mr Paterson, Mr Campbell, Miss Galloway, and Ms O’Donovan, the most with their line dancing prowess. Morven house were awarded second place, Lorne third place, and Atholl fourth place. Well done to all pupils who took part in the very successful event.
