School Photographs

School photographs are scheduled for Friday the 31st of August this year as per recent communications.  As in previous years, S1, S5 & S6 will have the opportunity to be photographed as individuals and 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. Normally this would have been done using a request form but due to technical issues in the school this week we would ask that pupils approach Mr Harris on the day of the photographs to make this request.

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. Thanks

TECHNICAL CHALLENGE

A number of pupils took part in a technical challenge in conjunction with LOVELL Construction have scooped First Place. Pupils were asked to design and build a Scottish landmark completely out of rubbish.

WILDERNESS TRUST CHARITY

Deputy Head Girl, Lauren Black, was invited to give a presentation in the Scottish Parliament to the Deputy First Minister John Swinney and partners of the Wilderness Trust charity about her Imbewu wilderness residential experience. Lauren detailed how she had experienced a week in a rural environment, meeting people from a range of careers including farmers and gamekeepers and how she had worked effectively with a team of young people she had never met before. Lauren also participated in a 2 day expedition, building on her team work skills gained from participating in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.  Lauren confidently detailed her personal achievements from the week and indicated how it had changed her career ambitions to work in a more rural environment with animals in future.

At this prestigious event, Lauren was awarded the joint first David Eldersley Award, created as a memorial to one of the charity’s trustees as she was an outstanding participant whose passion for the environment was clear throughout.  Jo stated that: “The selection process was particularly difficult due to the strength of applications. Lauren was recognised as having made some real transformation during her trail and her commitment to conservation and the rural sector shone through in her application as well as her subsequent engagement with the team. We could all see that Lauren will succeed in her endeavours later in life. We felt that the scholarship funding she received could make a difference in terms of accessing work experience, and further education.  We are proud to have her as a graduate and scholarship winner and believe that she will impact positively on nature and others she meets on her journey.” Lauren will use her fund to visit Orkney’s aquaculture industry to widen her knowledge of rural life.

Ms Morrow would encourage other young people to apply to join the Imbewu programme as feedback has been so positive. Common themes identified by participants are: the opportunity to be out of your comfort zone; finding your strengths to build confidence and belief in your abilities and making new friends from across Scotland. It also provides opportunities to learn more about nature, outdoor skills and rural jobs which could enhance your career prospects in future.  If any senior pupils are interested in participating in this year’s Imbewu residential, they should contact Ms Morrow in F044, Geography.

REPORT FROM LAUREN BLACK

In June 2017, I was accepted onto a 6 day Imbewu course run by the Wilderness Foundation.

The whole experience was a once in a lifetime opportunity to be able to experience the rural Douglas & Angus Estate with people that I had only met on the day of arrival. As the week progressed we worked together as a team, resolved many problems including small conflict and built trust and confidence within each other. We had fantastic opportunities to work alongside hill sheep farmers and game keepers to raise awareness of their careers. We also got to experience hill climbing, built protected owl boxes and camped together in pouring rain. Before we knew it we became a small community that was separated from the urbanised world without social media and phone service. At the start it was extremely difficult and daunting especially being in unfamiliar company 24/7 in an isolated environment. At the end of our week, surprisingly the drive back home through the built up areas felt unbelievably strange and somewhat uncomfortable. The most important message that learnt from Imbewu was that it is so easy to forget how important it can be to get away from the city and enjoy nature while it currently still exists. It was a life changing opportunity that will stay with me forever and to be awarded with the Eckersley scholarship at the end of it to explore rural areas further away is incredible and an invaluable opportunity that I am so grateful to have. I am planning on travelling to Orkney to experience one of Scotland’s largest fisheries and to gain a different insight into the rural world.  By Lauren Black

WILDERNESS TRUST CHARITY

Deputy Head Girl, Lauren Black, was invited to give a presentation in the Scottish Parliament to the Deputy First Minister John Swinney and partners of the Wilderness Trust charity about her Imbewu wilderness residential experience. Lauren detailed how she had experienced a week in a rural environment, meeting people from a range of careers including farmers and gamekeepers and how she had worked effectively with a team of young people she had never met before. Lauren also participated in a 2 day expedition, building on her team work skills gained from participating in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.  Lauren confidently detailed her personal achievements from the week and indicated how it had changed her career ambitions to work in a more rural environment with animals in future.

At this prestigious event, Lauren was awarded the joint first David Eldersley Award, created as a memorial to one of the charity’s trustees as she was an outstanding participant whose passion for the environment was clear throughout.  Jo stated that: “The selection process was particularly difficult due to the strength of applications. Lauren was recognised as having made some real transformation during her trail and her commitment to conservation and the rural sector shone through in her application as well as her subsequent engagement with the team. We could all see that Lauren will succeed in her endeavours later in life. We felt that the scholarship funding she received could make a difference in terms of accessing work experience, and further education.  We are proud to have her as a graduate and scholarship winner and believe that she will impact positively on nature and others she meets on her journey.” Lauren will use her fund to visit Orkney’s aquaculture industry to widen her knowledge of rural life.

Ms Morrow would encourage other young people to apply to join the Imbewu programme as feedback has been so positive. Common themes identified by participants are: the opportunity to be out of your comfort zone; finding your strengths to build confidence and belief in your abilities and making new friends from across Scotland. It also provides opportunities to learn more about nature, outdoor skills and rural jobs which could enhance your career prospects in future.  If any senior pupils are interested in participating in this year’s Imbewu residential, they should contact Ms Morrow in F044, Geography.
