Christmas and New Year are over and we slithered through the ice and snow into school last Wednesday to start a new term. Pupils and staff are back into full swing and the library is readying for spring term of revising for exams, English folio deadlines, lots of research projects including the S1 History Ancient Civilisations investigation and the usual lots of class visits, lunchtime and afterschool activities.

Before the festive season is forgotten, I would like to share some lovely work that the Art and English Departments collaborated on for display at the School’s carol service held in the Stromness Church before Christmas, and currently on display in the canteen.
