The S3 Geography students took part in a Fieldwork weekend at Kilbowie outdoor centre, Oban. This was to allow students to gather firsthand data on Rivers. With this information they will be able to produce AVUs and Assignments as part of their National curriculum. This was an inter- school event and was well attended by pupils from Airdrie, Coltness and Taylor secondary schools. Everyone had an excellent time and they managed to collect, process and analyse their data over the weekend!

Sixth year pupils at Airdrie Academy recently enjoyed a wonderful evening as they celebrated the end of the school year with their Prom.

The event was held at the Westerwood Hotel where pupils and staff danced the night away following a delicious three course meal.

School Captain Eman Qasim delivered a heartfelt speech where she thanked pupils for their active involvement in the wider life of the school and wished them well for their future endeavours.  Depute Head Teacher Allison Dewar also addressed pupils and thanked everyone for an exceptionally good year.  Sixth year pupil Keavi Higgins sang beautifully at the start of the evening.   Rev. Robbie Hamilton said a few words commending the pupils on a fantastic year and then said grace before a beautiful three course meal was served.

The photo booth was a great hit with pupils, where many fun photos were taken which reflected the ambience of the evening.  The dance floor was filled all night long and pupils enjoyed every single minute of their special night.

‘The prom was an amazing success where pupils were an absolute credit to themselves and the school.  The evening created memories that will last a lifetime.’
