On Thursday, we welcomed 150 new first year pupils from 22 different primary schools. With their infectious enthusiasm and thirst for knowledge and new skills, I know these bright young boys and girls will go on to achieve success in our school.
At the welcome back assemblies for each year group, I stressed the importance of maintaining a strong work ethic so that each pupil achieves their true potential, in order to feel confident and capable to move on from school into an increasingly competitive world. I congratulated the pupils in S4, S5 and S6 for their excellent SQA exam results. S5 did particularly well with 35% of the year group gaining 5 Highers.
Once again we hosted a group of pupils and teachers from our partner school in Beijing. Their itinerary included various trips, a BBQ, visits to Loch Lomond, Dynamic Earth, the Scottish Parliament, a night out at Al Borgo and The Tattoo. Our S3/S4 pupils visit Beijing in October. (link to photo)
