S3 Admin & Events Written by Eva Mackinnon , S5
Before the Christmas holidays , some of our staff took part in a Secret Santa , hosted by the S3 Admin and Events class . This took place at lunchtime on 20th December ... with Mr Ward starring as Santa .
The S3 Admin & Events class had organised festive music and decorations , snacks and a welcome speech for the guests . All teachers who took part had a great time and some of our news team members were there too to photograph the event .
Thanks to all involved !
S1 Snack Attack Challenge
It ’ s that time of year where our S1 students will be competing in teams to take part in our " Snack Attack Challenge "! This competition is designed to inspire creativity and entrepreneurial spirit among our young learners . Students are tasked with creating a unique and tasty snack that not only appeals to the taste buds but also considers the use of FairTrade ingredients , cost , packaging and branding . Teams have to create a business pitch and promotional materials for their snack that they will present
To the class after Easter . The winners , selected from each class , will have the opportunity of working with the Home Economics department to refine their recipe and the whole class will bake the winning snack ! We are excited to see their snack ideas become a reality ! We look forward to tasting the innovative snacks on offer and wish all participants the best of luck in their delicious endeavors .
