We are so proud of our team of pupils (Monika, Maya, Taylor, Michaela, Alyssa and Tamara) who absolutely shone with confidence giving their business pitch this afternoon at the Winter Final of the the King’s Trust Enterprise Challenge. They worked so hard planning and delivering a business pitch for their social enterprise. Well done to them all! Unfortunately the girls were beaten to the winning place by Shawlands Academy, but they were praised for their excellent presentation and given wonderful feedback from the judges.

This event was made possible thanks to a generous grant awarded to the Computing Science department through the Big Bang Schools Bursary, which provided pupils with access to new resources and equipment for the challenge.

We are thrilled to celebrate our talented S6 pupil, Daisy, who has once again had her short story published in Paperboy magazine! The theme this time was “Anything Scottish”, and Daisy wrote an imaginative story about a young girl who wakes up to find that everything Scottish has vanished, from tartan and bagpipes to haggis and Irn-Bru.
To bring her story to life, Daisy carried out thorough research into Scottish history and inventors, discovering fascinating facts that enriched her writing. Her creativity and attention to detail impressed the Paperboy editor, who wrote:
“You are a genius, never stop writing and creating. You have tons of talent.”
Paperboy magazine was founded in 2021 by McKendrick, who was born in Clydebank, Scotland, and graduated from the Glasgow School of Art. The magazine features a unique mix of world renowned writers, photographers, and artists alongside the fresh voices of high school pupils and undergraduates. Daisy’s inclusion among such creative talent is a remarkable achievement and a wonderful recognition of her skills.
Daisy’s story stands out for its originality, humour, and thoughtful message about Scottish culture and identity. We are incredibly proud of her continued success and cannot wait to see what she creates next.
