Who will solve it first?
CNHS Runners
The teachers in CNHS have officially joined up to make their own running club. In recent years their have been teacher representatives running in races for charities such as St Andrew’s Hospice, Mary’s Meals and Cancer Research Uk. So far our members are – Mrs McGhee, Mrs Ferguson, Miss Gray, Miss Gallagher, Miss Campbell, Mr McGrory and Mr Crawford. All new members are welcome – see our new notice board for details.
Parental Involvement
Last night there was a hotly contested cupcake competition between S1 pupils, parents and Mrs McGhee. Despite a valiant attempt to produce cakes to a “Bake Off” standard, Mrs McGhee was pipped at the post by Ali Mohammed. Well done Ali.
Celebrating Success
Well done to Michael McG
raw in our S5 who won 2 medals at the recent Scottish Championship Tai Kwon Do competition in Ravenscraig Regional Sports facility. The Gold was for winning 5 out of 5 solo fights and the Silver as part of a tag team winning 4 out of 5. Excellent achievement.
Celebrating Success
Twelve of our talented pupils were swimming in a competition in Sheffield at the weekend. The CNHS contingency won a total of 30 medals – well done. The pupils also had the opportunity to swim with, and get advice from, Olympic medalist Ross Murdoch.
Caritas Commissioning Mass
On Monday September 19 at Motherwell Cathedral, twenty of our S6 pupils joined their peers from across the Diocese to participate in the Caritas Award Commissioning Mass. Bishop Toal lead the celebrations and blessed the Caritas Award badges before they were presented to the candidates. The Caritas Community gathered thereafter for refreshments in St Brides Hall.
Three of our pupils had roles in the liturgy, with wonderful singing and reading from Lucy, Anne Clare and Niamh. 
And the winners are …….
Charity: St Andrew’s Hospice
Staff and pupils turned out yesterday morning to run round Strathclyde Park in aid of St Andrew’s Hospice. The weather was perfect for those trying to beat their personal bests in a 6K race. The results will be posted as they come in later today.
Well done to all who took part.
Don’t forget to get all sponsor monies to Mr McCluskey as soon as possible. 
Charity
Today we were visited by Lara MacDonald from the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity. Lara gave the pupils a talk on the fantastic work of the this charity. The hospital might be better known to you as the former Yorkhill Sick Kids Hopsital.
“We help the babies, children and young people treated at Scotland’s largest children’s hospital, the Royal Hospital for Children, Glasgow. We fund medical equipment, research, play programmes and family support services to ensure that our young patients receive the best possible care and experience.”
CNHS were delighted to hand over a cheque for £2,590 raised solely by the hard work of Jack Moxen of Kentigern House. Jack spent much of the summer selling home made cakes and the weather certainly wasn’t always in his favour.
