The whole school gathered today to celebrate a busy final term in St Augustine’s.

We celebrated our many successes and enjoyed hearing all about our wonderful achievements throughout a busy year.  Awards were given for Pope Francis Faith Award, Scottish Engineering Awards and attendance.  Well done to all award winners.

A cheque was presented to St Andrews Hospice for our recent fund raising – thank you very much for supporting our charitable events throughout the year.
