S3 Geography Trip to Dynamic Earth

45 S3 Geography pupils along with Mrs Carruthers, Miss Curley and Mrs Lynas recently visited Dynamic Earth in Edinburgh for an out of school learning experience. Pupils were involved in various tasks throughout the day while studying Natural Hazards. This is a key part of the course for our S3 pupils and we are glad they all had a great day

S3 Mock Election

As part of their Democracy Unit, Miss Donnelly’s S3 Modern Studies Class held a Mock Election.

Each group represented one of the main political parties in the UK and picked a candidate to stand for election.

The groups also created a manifesto which they handed out and campaigned for their candidate.

The pupils then took part in a vote using a ballot paper with the winner of 3D’s election being announced as Lee Bolton of the Liberal Democrats!

Well Done 3D Modern Studies!

The overall winners were Martin McGuiness and Rebecca Johnston, Carly Crooks and Joy Healy and Angel Lynch and Ulla Majore.

 

Well Done Everyone!
