<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\nWell done to Murray Gallagher (S6), who took part in the Scottish Civic Trust\u2019s \u2018My Place\u2019 photography competition. There were almost 500 entries in total and the panel of judges was very impressed with the quality and range of submissions. Murray\u2019s image, \u2018Harbour Walk\u2019 was selected by the jury as a Highly Commended photograph within this year\u2019s secondary school category.<\/p>\n
Our annual Primary K\u2019Nex Challenge took place last week and the schools were well represented. As always, the young people came up with some very imaginative designs and worked well as teams. Following the judging, Craighead team 2 were declared the runners up and Chapelgreen Team 2 were the winners. Well done to all concerned and thanks to Mr Turnbull and his S3 helpers, for laying everything on.<\/p>\n
Last week also saw the annual Rotary Club Public Speaking Competition, within the school. The eleven competitors had prepared excellent speeches for the judges, who came from the Rotary Club of Kilsyth. At the end of the event, the winner in the Junior competition was declared as Harry Thomson (S1) and the runner up was Ross Chalmers (S2). In the Senior competition, the winner was Sean Climie (S6) and the runner-up was Adam Boyd (S4). Well done to all!<\/p>\n
All pupils should have received a copy of the Head Teacher\u2019s Newsletter, which incorporates a copy of the Progress Report from the school\u2019s HMIe Inspection, in 2012.<\/p>\n
Plans for the Easter School, from 13th<\/sup> \u2013 16th<\/sup> April are now all in place, and those pupils who have opted in have been provided with details about tutorials, study time and transport. Pupils have also been issued with individual timetables and detailed instructions for the forthcoming SQA examinations.<\/p>\nThe school will close for the Easter Break on Thursday 2nd<\/sup> April, at 2.30 p.m. and we will re-open on Monday 20th<\/sup> April, at 8.55 a.m. Thursday will also be a non-uniform day and pupils wishing to participate in that should pay \u00a31 towards yearbook fundraising.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Congratulations to our Dance squads who represented the school at the North Lanarkshire Dance Championships.
