  • Annual Review 2018 – 19
    ANNUAL REVIEW 2018 – 19 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair” - Nelson Mandela - 2 Foreword… 2018-19 was a year of self-reflection for the Active Schools team, having completed the Insights Personality test. Understanding others and appreciating our differences was one of the key learnings. This programme helped us build valuable working relationships and a network of partners, allowing Active Schools to make the impact they have made this year. The Active Schools team continue to work with and nurture senior pupils who officiate, coach, organise competitions, become Young Ambassadors who are our decision makers. Gaining relevant sports qualifications and valuable experience in delivery, the young people are able to Jude Salmon develop their employability skills. Active Schools Manager In today’s world we are affected by factors including stress, mental health, obesity and poverty. Taking part in sport and physical activity truly does make a difference to our lives and I hope that some of the stories you are about to read will illustrate this to you. The phrase, ‘healthy body, healthy mind’ says it all. Our bodies were designed to move and when we keep them healthy, we have a better outlook on life, and on learning. The most wonderful part of keeping fit and healthy is that it is fun, but as this annual review shows, it can also open doors into future careers through volunteering and coaching.

  • December 2018
    December 2018 UPDATE View a full colour version on our website: www.dyceacademy.aberdeen.sch.uk WELCOME As we head towards the Christmas holidays we try to strike a balance between keeping the focus on the work of the school and acknowledging some of the more festive celebrations around this time of year. On the work front we are very aware of the need to prepare our senior pupils for estimate exams in January. Therefore pupils and staff know they will be working hard in class up to the end of the week. The estimate timetable has been issued to our seniors and a copy has been provided to parents via email. Young people should be planning their study alongside ensuring they rest and recharge the batteries. Our term will end with House assemblies which feature a reflection on the year so far and our hopes for the year to come: lots of pictures, music, performances and the presentation of awards to those who have contributed so much to the sponsored walk. We raised over £5 000 which is a superb effort in quite difficult times. Look out for the staff video on Youtube. Might be the staff that are ‘banned’ from ASDA – you’ll see what I mean when you view our efforts. I am always proud of the way our young people show kindness within our community. They have supported charity events such as Christmas Jumper Day to support Save the Children; they have gathered gifts for needy teenagers and supported the local foodbank by bringing in a wide range of items.

  • Summer Newsletter 2018
    COMPASSION DETERMINATION HONESTY SELF-BELIEF RESILIENCE RESPECT SUMMER NEWSLETTER 2018 A message from our Headteacher I hope you find this newsletter not only informative, but also that you are pleased with the continued efforts being made by staff and pupils alike to attain and achieve. The newsletter will reflect the range of opportunities young people enjoy and their success. It will also reflect that the staff continue to offer and deliver a range of opportunities to young people which are second to none. The SQA exam diet for 2018 is complete and once again all of our young people have demonstrated the capacities of curriculum for excellence, in the responsible, confident and effective way they have conducted themselves throughout the exam period. Our SQA invigilators congratulated the pupils for their exemplary behaviour, both the exam candidates and the junior pupils who ensured their conduct was such that the conditions for sitting exams were excellent. For those who sat SQA exams, time will tell if you have demonstrated that you are also successful learners. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our team of invigilators who provide a consistent level of excellence to Castle Douglas High School. When the results are released in August there will be staff in school on Wednesday 8th August, from 10am – 2pm, to answer queries and to help young people make decisions about their learning pathways should they feel their subject choices have to change based on their results. It is not often that a school wins a national competition, especially a competition where the number of entries and the quality of those entries is so high.
