Scotland when Catholic schools were brought into the public provision of
education.

We are always very proud to share the fantastic achievements of our young people though our newsletters, local press and through formal and informal ceremonies. If there are special events or achievements outside of school, please get in touch with us and we can take opportunities to celebrate these successes.
Further to the successful
grant of £3000 we received two years ago from the Food For Thought funding to
establish the St. Maurice's garden, we have again been successful in securing
another £3000 for chickens and honey bees. The money will allow us to build a
chicken coup and run, purchase 6 chickens, bee hives and honey bees. The project will commence immediately with the
pupils from Horticulture and the S4 Prince’s Trust group clearing and preparing
the quadrant area outside the old oratory for the building of the chicken pen.
We would also like to invite volunteer pupils, staff and members of the
local community to support our project. Please speak to Nicola Lames (PE) or Jim Lawson
(PE) for further information.
