We are extremely proud to announce that an invention created by a child from Ness Clan won the East of Scotland for their age category. Their invention, The Automatic Pencil, will be displayed at the University of Edinburgh Exhibition on 18th May and they will also recieve their certificate and trophy at an Award Ceremony later that day.
We had a huge number of entries of an extremely high standard so all children involved in the If you were an engineer what would you do? competition should be extremely proud of themselves. A special thanks also goes to Mr Clarke (Calderwood Parent) for giving the children in Ness, Rannoch and Tay Clans inspiration to begin inventing through presenting to the clans on the topic of his STEM career.

L.I. I am learning about autism and that we all have differences and similarities.
Ness, Rannoch and Tay clans have been finding out all about autism for World Autism Acceptance Week. We shared our prior knowledge about autism and then read some stories to find out more. We recognised that autism is one of many things that make someone unique and we celebrated this by making venn diagrams to show our similarities and differences. Some of the pupils were keen to share their knowledge with others so we made a video showing our understanding and ideas about autism and why awareness is important.
