Engineering Opportunity for S3 Girls

Engineering the Future for Girls

Monday 8 – Friday12 June 2020    

                                              

 Engineering the Future for Girls is being delivered in collaboration with BP and BAM Nuttall and is designed to engage girls in a wide range of engineering challenges that will inspire them to become the next generation of engineers. The summer school is fully-funded by BP and BAM Nuttall and all student costs, including a contribution towards travel, will be covered. Strathclyde will accept applications from girls with any range of subject choices at National 5. The summer school is non-residential and therefore pupils should be able to make their way each day to the Strathclyde University Campus in the heart of Glasgow City Centre. Teachers are not required to accompany pupils during the week. For the pupils’ convenience, we have arranged for Mentors to accompany pupils from and to Queen Street train station, Glasgow Central train station and Buchanan Bus Station at the start and end of each day.

Pupils should apply using the online application form available on our website:www.strath.ac.uk/engineering/outreach/engineeringthefutureforgirls

Well done for all your hard work over the weekend.

 

 

 

 

Prelims

Information from North Lanarkshire Council

Prelim Examinations – Thursday 18 January

All prelim examinations scheduled to take place in North Lanarkshire secondary schools on Thursday 18 January have been postponed due to the adverse weather conditions. Our schools will inform pupils and parents of the revised arrangements.

All other classes are running as normal and pupils are expected to be in school.

Unfortunately due to ongoing concerns about the weather we have had to cancel the ceilidh tomorrow evening (Thursday Jan 18).  We will endeavour to reschedule this event but if this isn’t possible all money paid by pupils will be transferred onto their prom.

Due to safety concerns for pupils, parents and staff, tonight’s S5/6 Parent Meeting is cancelled.  An adverse weather forecast has announced further snow and ice from 3 pm.

Faith In Action

Last night Mrs Barr, Mr Stewart and Fr. John from Conforti accompanied a group of dedicated seniors into Glasgow to bring some Christmas cheer to the homeless.  This was an eye-opening and emotional experience for our youngsters.

Our young people raised money, bought the gifts and then set out on an expedition to put their faith into action – well done to all involved.
