The Parent Council AGM will take place in the school at 6:30pm on Monday 23rd September. All parents and carers are welcome to attend.

Note that there is presently 1 vacancy (Treasurer) on Greenfaulds High School Parent Council. As a member of the school’s Parent Forum, you are entitled to put yourself forward for membership of the Parent Council. If you are interested in becoming a member of the Parent Council, please inform the school by no later than Friday 20^th September.

Please note that if the number of interested parents/guardians exceeds the number of places available then members will be decided (as per our constitution, point 11) by each parent member at the meeting having one vote, with the Chair having a casting vote in the event of a tie.

School photographs are scheduled for Friday the 30th of August this year as per the school calendar.  As in previous years, S1, S5 & S6 will have the opportunity to be photographed as individuals with S1 pupils also being photographed in class groups. In addition all S6 pupils will be involved in a full year group photograph.

There will be an opportunity for parents of new S1 pupils to request a family photograph with their siblings. Please fill in the tear off slip found in the parental letter at the bottom of the page and return it to the school office if you wish a family photograph.

The company providing the service this year is ColorFoto, they provide a fully integrated online system to order the photographs. The school would ask that parents order the photographs online, pupils are issued with these details on the day of the photo shoot. If this is not possible please contact the school office.

There is no obligation to buy but we do require all pupils to be photographed for school records. Pupils are expected to be in full school uniform for photographs and we would appreciate your continued support in this matter.

Congratulations to all of our pupils who competed in the Scottish Schools Athletic Championships.  A special thanks to the fantastic work done by our valued partners Cumbernauld Athletic Club and of course the parents who attend and support our talented young athletes.

The championship was regarded as one of our very best performances in recent years and below is a summary of achievements of our athletes.

Pentathlon: Amy Kennedy S3 Bronze Medal, Hannah Wallace S4 5th Place – both will be invited to the National Team Development Camp in the Autumn

Hammer: Hana Gay S1 Silver Medal, is now one of the top Hammer Throwers for her age in Scotland

1500m Steeplechase: Calum Little S5 Bronze Medal, currently being considered for a discretionary place for the National Team for this years SIAB in Swansea

400m: Emily Miller Gold Medal, 200m Silver Medal. Emily is one of the top 400m Athletes in Scotland and is currently part of the UK Athletics Development Program in Loughborough

100m: Grace Young S1 Silver Medal + National Standard, after a strong indoor season has continued being one of the top sprinters in Scotland in her current age group this year

80m Hurdles: Euan Wallace S2 Bronze Medal

300m: Calum MacKenzie S3 – Silver Medal + National Standard – this was Calum’s first National competition and his performance puts him in the top 2 in Scotland, special thanks to Mr Neil in helping  with Calum’s late event registration

On top of the above medal winning and performances, there were a number of other great performances by the following athletes:

Amy Kennedy S3: reached the finals of Shot Put (4th), Discus (4th) and 300m Hurdles

Hannah Wallace S4: reached the finals in the 80m Hurdles and Long Jump (4th)

Kaela Senior S1: reached the finals of the 70m Hurdles

Jack Breakell S1: 70m Hurdles

Adam Atkinson S2 – reached the final of the 100m (7th)

One final athlete that deserves a special mention is Alasdair McMonagle S5.

Due to serious debilitating health issues over recent years the thought of Alasdair running again this year really was unthinkable. Having worked closely with his coaches, parents and the guidance of his physio teams at the beginning of last November in an empty Emirates Arena he ran an 800m time trial for the 1st time since his illness, which was great to watch unfold. Under continued guidance from his parents and his medical team, Alasdair has managed to come back into Athletics and despite still having challenging days he is now in a place where he has recently ran a PB in his 800m. On Saturday he unfortunately was caught in the ribs accidentally by another Athlete that took him out of his heat, which was a disappointment to him. However taking into consideration what he as been through and his incredible resilience this I am sure is just a wee bump he will work through.

Again thank you to the wonderful work of Cumbernauld AAC and their dedicated and talented coaching team. Greenfaulds High School looks forward to the future success of our young athletes and a flourishing partnership with our local athletics club.

The school tries to highlight and celebrate the success of our pupils on social media platforms such as Instagram and Twitter. If there are any photos taken by proud parents or coaches please tag the school in and we will share these with the wider school community.

Thank You
