Today our S1 were challenged to plan, design and build a floating garden. Each group had to produce a cost effective, sustainable way of growing the maximum amount of food. Many thanks to @AmdMcGinty for the superb prizes of family passes to the Glasgow Science Centre, the pupils were delighted! @gsc1 A massive thank you also goes to our STEM Ambassadors Carol, Emma & Peter for their contributions today, it was very much appreciated.

Today’s S5 assembly was with John Chival @OutwardBoundUK, who was encouraging pupils to participate in the Mark Scott Leadership Award.
The Mark Scott Leadership for Life Award brings together over 220 pupils from 77 schools across the Central Belt of Scotland. The participants are drawn from different social, economic, religious and cultural backgrounds, to work together to deliver projects to benefit their local communities. The innovative combination of an outdoor learning residential and urban community-based project helps to break down barriers that exist within our communities, supports young people to develop their confidence and provides them with the skills and attributes needed in transition to further education, training and employment.
Free practical training designed to increase parents’ and carers’ awareness of bullying and the other risks and challenges children and young people face online. It includes a practical, hands-on session on social media, looking at how to set and manage profiles and privacy settings, to help ensure that children and young people are safe online.
