Following the upheavals of last week due to the heavy snow, it has been business as usual this week. The pupils have behaved very responsibly in the weather conditions and have avoided ‘ice-related’ accidents.

The S5/6 pupils are preparing for the prelim examinations that begin on 25 January. Hopefully, the cold weather has encouraged them to stay indoors and study!

Yesterday, all S4 pupils undertook a ‘Live’n Learn’ seminar. These were timed to build on the prelim results and to provide further guidance on successful revision and study.

Today, the school hall has been alive with the sound of African drumming. It was the turn of S1 Lammerlaw to try the drums, dancing and singing as part of the Destination Africa section of the ACE AM. Although it was noisy and hard work, the pupils had a very enjoyable time.

Best wishes,
