“You can’t lose if you don’t play the game…” – Trip to Glasgow’s Theatre Royal

Leave a comment

S2 and S3 enjoyed a trip to Glasgow’s Theatre Royal to see the Royal Shakespeare Company’s wonderful version of the classic tale of young love (or gang story, depending on your point of view…). It was many of our young people’s first experience of live theatre and they were delighted by the wonderful and powerful performances. Tickets were being taken home as souvenirs for memory boxes. They were impeccably behaved. Miss Robertson may even have had a tear in her eye at the end but sssshhh, don’t ruin her rep! 🙂

Annual S1 Panto Trip

Leave a comment

Our traditional S1 panto outing to a non-traditional panto took place on Tuesday 18th December. Once again, Mrs Robertson managed the incredible feat of getting 90 S1 pupils safely to Glasgow (and back again, of course!) Mrs Robertson and Mrs Chalmers were most impressed with the impeccable behaviour and the response from the pupils. The Tron Theatre always push boundaries with their modern interpretation of traditional pantos and reflect issues in the world today. It is always so heartening to see our young people so open-minded to and supportive of difference – never lose this!
