Scottish Rugby Visit

Anderson High School had the pleasure of welcoming the Scottish Rugby Union into school last Friday as part of their tour around the country with the Calcutta Cup.  Chris Patterson, ex player and current leading points scorer for Scotland accompanied the cup.  Two of our S3 P.E. classes experienced a coaching session with Chris on Friday afternoon and had a great session.  Our thanks go to Active Schools for organising the visit and supporting the sessions that were held.

S2 SPORTS DAY

What a great day today with our S2 sports day.  Unfortunately we were not blessed with some of the fine weather we have been having lately however, the day was still a great success.  There were some excellent individual results as well as collective efforts from our four house teams which were resurrected from previous years – Hermaness, Noss, Fitful and Ronas.  Photos below  of the winning team and individual winners.

At the weekend gymnasts from the AHS travelled to Dundee to compete in a different gymnastics discpline called Teamgym where each team complete 3 tumble sequences and 3 trampette/trampette with vault sequences to music. This is the first time the club have entered this type of competition and the Junior team (aged 12-16yrs) came 2nd, beating all the other Scottish teams.
