We have had a busy month. S3 Health and
Food Technology pupils competed in the
school heat of the Future Chef competition
and Chef, Mark Heirs, came into judge.
Jemma and James were our successful
winners and went on to the local Perth heat
on Monday 26 November. Jason Hardcastle
from the Gleneagles Hotel came down and
worked with our pupils, which has given
them confidence in their skills and dishes.
Good luck to both!

S3 Fashion and Textiles pupils
produced this amazing poppy art
work which took centre stage at the
Remembrance Assemblies. We look
forward to displaying it where it can
be appreciated by everyone.
S1 pupils have also made huge strides with their Textile Technology. They designed and
made personalised cushions and the results have shown hard work and effort. They
have now moved on to Food Technology and have started to learn how to cook safely
and hygienically, giving them essential skills for life.
