Due to popular demand we have added another Fitness Suite session Monday after school for all pupils which will be lead by our very capable, motivating and inspiring senior pupil Rhiannon.
The Ultimate Frisbee days and times will be be advertised ASAP!
On a cool autumn morning on Friday the 30th of September, 160 first years pupils, 30 staff and helpers descended on Drumpelier Country Park to participate in our PE, Home Economics and Geography inter-disciplinary event; Picnic in the Park.
This event was the culmination of weeks of learning across the different departments in the school. In PE, the pupils spent time developing their fitness and learning the skills required to successfully complete the Orienteering competition course. In Home Economics, pupils learned about sports nutrition, preparing Flapjacks to eat before the event to provide energy, and soup and a roll to refuel after the event. Our young people brushed up on their map reading skills in Geography so that they could successfully negotiate the entire grounds of the park.
Despite a couple of heavy showers, a good morning of outdoor learning was enjoyed by everyone with all S1 pupils gaining either their Gold, Silver or Bronze National Navigation Award.
Special congratulations to all of our medal winning pairs for completing their respective courses in the fastest time!
