School holidays are important. They give pupils (and teachers!) the chance to relax, unwind and have a break from school. We caught up with some teachers and pupils to see what they got up to in the October break.
“During the October holidays I went over to Dalry with my friends and we had a chippy while being chased by midges.”
Dylan Wade
“On October week we visited a mostly rainy Spain where I enjoyed practising my Spanish and some time to enjoy reading the books the AH class are studying for their dissertations this year. The highlight of the holiday was definitely canyoning in the Guadalima gorge which was brilliant fun!”
Mrs. Marshall
“I wasn’t very busy. I relaxed, read books and repainted the summer house. It was also my son’s birthday!”
Mrs. Eck
“I went to London and we took the train.”
Matthew Wright
“I went to a cat cafe.”
Cody Smith
“I went to Glasgow and stayed for a few nights at a hotel. I also played a round of crazy Golf at Golf Fang and I won! I also went shopping and treated myself to some Nightmare Before Christmas goodies.”
Mrs. Weston
“I went to Dundee for a few days with the family. went to the Vand A museum, discovered HMS discovery and the ship HMS Unicorn. I went for some lovely meals and shopping. Met Desperate Dan, Our Wullie and the bash street kids. Had a great time.”
