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. There is a wide variety of clubs running throughout the year with something to suit everyone. Pupils can still sign-up this week by speaking to Miss Dougall or Mrs Carlin.

On the 3rd December, 2018, Melissa Rodger and Jude Watson attended the ESU St. Andrew’s Day Debate, held in the Scottish Parliament. Melissa participated wholeheartedly in three rounds of thought provoking debate and was a credit to the school. Jude had the ominous role of student judge in all three rounds and he was an excellent ambassador for Airdrie Academy. Both pupils had a fantastic experience and learned a great deal which they are keen to cascade to their fellow public speakers during their weekly lunchtime club.
