Scottish History Trip to Stirling

Thirty of our History pupils spent the day visiting Stirling. A perfect day out to enhance our Scottish History topic. Our first stop was Stirling Castle, where we learned about life in the past and were given an excellent input from one of the castle guides on the life of Mary, Queen of Scots. After that we headed over to the Bannockburn Experience where we found out about Scotland’s most famous victory in battle. The pupils took part in an interactive battle game before heading off to the monument to Robert the Bruce.
A great day was had by all.

New Year New Me – Club Sign-up

We had a great turn out at our club sign-up with many of our young people putting their name down to join one of our school clubs. This is to encourage all of our young people to help look after their own mental and physical health by trying something different this term. We continue to send the message to our young people that being more connected and active will have a positive effect on their mood and mental wellbeing.
