Members of the Pupil Council led morning assemblies last month as part of the national Anti-Bullying Week Campaign. Working with Mr Cameron McKay of the English Department, Liam Findon, Jarad Bruff and Ross Megahy created and presented a power point presentation outlining types of bullying and pointing out the sometimes harrowing consequences for the victims. The Pupil Council in Clyde Valley has challenged our pupils to make any form of bullying totally unacceptable in the school, ending with the powerful message that only by the pupil cohort standing firm together can that wonderful objective be achieved.

The Christmas Disco is on Wednesday the 12 of December at half past 7. Tickets are £4 and are on sale from Monday the 3rd of December at the child care room outside canteen 1.  Make sure you get yours and don’t miss out!

Enterprise Week  took place in November  and one of our school’s most successful enterprise initiatives is Eco Schools. To mark Enterprise Week  a new ‘Eco Gallery’ was launched in the corridor next to Canteen One. Pupils from across the school were invited to take part in a competition to mark the launch, where they had to submit their best photos  of local wildlife or a nature scene.

Judges, including Mr Sommerville and Mr Weir, were very impressed with the variety of entries and chose Kirstin Scott as the overall winner for her impressive picture of two hoverflies. Second place went to Lucy Dundas for her shot of Dalziel Park, while third place was shared by Arlene Walker and Dylan Duncan.

The Eco Gallery now features the pupils’ work and will continue to be updated on a regular basis.
