Charlie Scott, from the S6 Leadership class, led a team of his peers last week, to raise money for the international refugee crisis. This included daily collections of spare change plus a non-uniform day on Friday. The pupils raised £710, which was a great total. Well done!
Pupils from S1, S2 and S3 took part in workshops on online safety, presented by a representative of Police Scotland. The pupils were very engaged in the presentations and asked a range of relevant questions.
Last week saw the inter-House Rugby tournament for S2/3 boys. Despite the poor weather, the young people gave it their all and Antonine House were the victors. Colzium came second, Dumbreck third and Balmalloch fourth.
Simultaneously, the S1/2 girls’ inter-House Netball competition took place. There was an excellent response from each House and the teams played very well, with Colzium House coming out as winners. In this event, Antonine came second, with Balmalloch third and Dumbreck fourth. Well done to all.
S5/6 Tracking Reports were issued last week and acknowledgement sheets should be returned by 20th October.
