Our S3 Bronze Duke of Edinburgh group is currently out on their qualifying expedition in the scenic Pentland Hills.
Over the course of two days, the students are putting their navigation, teamwork, and resilience to the test as they hike through varied terrain, carry full expedition kits, and camp overnight. This challenge marks a significant milestone in their Duke of Edinburgh journey, showcasing their dedication and adventurous spirit.
We’re incredibly proud of their efforts and look forward to welcoming them back with plenty of stories and accomplishments to share.
New S4 Physics and Chemistry pupils went on a trip to the Science Centre and “All Energy” Conference at the SEC. We watched a fascinating IMAX film about global warming and the need for renewable energy. We then had a tour round the Science Centre before heading over the river to the SEC to explore the stalls of renewable energy companies and got to speak to lots of people in these industries to find out about the innovations happening around the UK to help tackle the problem.
Massive congratulations to Fergus Munro (S3, Lewis) and Navlyn Perika (S3, Lewis), who competed in the Crown Office public speaking competition on behalf of King’s Park Secondary this afternoon.
Both spoke so well and are now the Glasgow Schools champions. Fantastic news and we can’t wait to see how they get on in the national semi-finals!
Well done Navlyn and Fergus and a huge thank you to Mr Grimes for supporting both of them!
