We held our AGM at the beginning of the new academic year, thank you to all those who attended.

For this next year we have tried to put together a mixture of activities to promote the school and provide funds for the students.

In the past, we have given money to various departments including, the PE department for netball dresses, the library for a variety of resources, SCIPS (a lunch time club) for games, the ICT department for new microphones and computer software. This year, we are hoping to buy some much-needed goal posts as well as continue to provide funds for the library.

 

Autumn Showcase at Hugh Christie

On Wednesday November 21st and Thursday November 22^nd 2012 the first Autumn Showcase took place at Hugh Christie Technology College. This community project has grown out of the annual Fashion Show, which started in 2008.

 

The aim of the project is to bring together students from various schools to help to boost their confidence and self esteem. This year over 80 students took part in the show, which was a miscellany of the Arts.

 

The Showcase was a great success and all the students who took part gave an excellent performance and certainly showed enormous talent.
