Tickets for ‘Disco Inferno’, on the evenings of Tuesday 2nd, Wednesday 3rd and Thursday 4th June are on sale every lunchtime, outside the café. The prices are £7 for Adults and £5 for Concessions.

A group of S3 pupils, studying Modern Studies, visited the Scottish Parliament last week and had a great day. During the visit, they had an opportunity to discuss fracking with MSPs Jamie Hepburn and Margaret Mitchell. The group also toured the Parliament and greatly enjoyed the experience. Many thanks to Mrs Wilson for organising the trip.

Simultaneously, a group of S1 pupils spent the day at Our Dynamic Earth. This was part of their Geography course and, again, the young people had a fantastic day. Many thanks to Miss Moir for organising the event.

Pupils in S4, S5 and S6, who do not have Study Leave, have been working with New College Lanarkshire and Skills Development Scotland, for part of each week. In classes they have been working on some projects, including fundraising for the Nepal Earthquakes.

Our three Uniform evenings will take place on Tuesday 19th May, Monday 8th June and Wednesday 17th June, each from 5.00 p.m. until 8.00 p.m. There will be a number of special offers available at each of these events. At each one, our Parent Council will be selling tombola tickets and we hope parents will take time to support this and to chat to the Parent Council about their work. Donations for the tombola would be most welcome, in the run up to these events. These can be handed in at the school reception or passed to any member of the Parent Council.

The school will be closed on Friday 22nd May and Monday 25th May, apart from those sitting SQA examinations. They will run as scheduled.

The next meeting of the Parent Council will take place on Thursday 28th May, at 7.00 p.m. This is a week earlier than originally scheduled, due to the timing of the school show.
