The aim of the initiative is to encourage children to read more.
In addition, we are seeking to enlist the support and seek the views of parents and carers. It would be greatly appreciated, if you are a parent or guardian of an S1 pupil, if you could take the time to complete the following survey:

We made an application to Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme for funding to introduce more outdoor education in the PE curriculum. We are delighted that our application has been successful and our project will be put forward to a customer vote in Tesco stores during July and August 2018.
What happens next?
Our project will go forward to a vote in Tesco stores where customers will decide the outcome by voting for their favourite project each time they shop. Voting will take place from Sunday 1st July to Friday 31st August 2018.
Please see below a list of stores taking part in the voting:
To vote, you will need to make a purchase within store of any value. You will receive one token per transaction and it’s not necessary to purchase a carrier bag in order to receive a token.
On Friday 1st June 2018 our S1 and S2 pupils attended Hutchesons Grammar High School for the Scottish Schools Relay (4 X 100m) Championships. This was the first year this school has competed in this event! Our pupils ran very well in their teams and were up against the best of the best that Scotland has to offer at these age groups. In particular, our S2 boys team just missed a place in the final (finishing 7th overall).
This was a fantastic day out for the club and all should be so proud of their achievements this year!
Applications relating to the new term will be accepted by First Stop Shops from the first week in June. Submit early to ensure clothing grants are made and free school meals are registered for the start of the new session.
