9 Higher Politics students participated in North Lanarkshire’s International Conference on Thursday the 21 June.
The Conference is set up like a United Nations Convention and pupils debated two resolutions. Each school is allocated a country and debate from the perspective of their allocated country. Our Lady’s High School were allocated ‘Zimbabwe’. The pupils really enjoyed the experience and did a fantastic job of representing the school.
A group of pupils visited The Glasgow Science Centre on Monday 25 June as a reward for their participation in the S1 Science Club.
The visit included the ‘Lego Mindstorms Driving Test’ workshop and a visit to the ‘Optical Illusions’ section.
The pupils used their problem solving skills to complete a series of challenges which they all did exceptionally well. A great day was had by all!
The S3 Personal Development class recently enjoyed a very successful trip to the Falkirk Wheel and The Kelpies.
The pupils enjoyed the boat ride at the Falkirk Wheel which lifted the boat up 35m in the air from the Forth and Clyde Canal to join the Union Canal for a short time, before returning back down again. The journey was accompanied with a commentary telling you the history of the Falkirk Wheel and the surrounding area.
After this adventure, we made our way to the Kelpies, where we were given a guided tour which took us inside Duke, one of the Kelpies. We also learned how Arria “The Angel of the Nauld” was designed by the same Glaswegian sculptor Andy Scott. Then we had fun in the Adventure Park before heading back to school. Everyone had a great day on a unique and highly memorable trip.
TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW – £5 concession, £7 adult and can be bought from Mrs Ferris-Bell at lunchtimes or by contacting the school office.
Show dates are: Tuesday 19th, Wednesday 20th and Thursday 21st of June.
Come along to support our fantastic cast who have been working hard since January! It’s a brilliant show with lots of laughs and great tunes!
