  • President's Report, Year Ended 2019
    ST ANDREWS-LOCHES ALLIANCE President’s Report, year ended 31st December 2019 2019 began with our now traditional New Year Drinks Party. This was a very pleasant gathering of about 25 members during which I was able to announce the Alliance Programme for the coming year. We continued to run the bar for the first three SCO concerts at the Younger Hall, which raised on average about £130. We are grateful to the SCO for bearing the cost of the necessary ‘occasional licences’. This activity has come to a temporary halt while the Younger Hall is closed for refurbishment. In April we welcomed a group of golfers from Loches. The Community Council kindly offered a trophy and this was contested by the Loches golfers and a team made up mostly of Alliance golfing members. With some financial support from the Links Trust, matches took place over the Strathtyrum, Jubilee and Eden courses. The Alliance team narrowly beat the guests and won the trophy which was presented by Callum McLeod, Provost of St Andrews at a dinner on the last night of the visit. A return match in the Loches area is planned for 2020. A group of pupils from Madras College once again visited their partner school in Loches, Collège Georges Besse. The Alliance was able to contribute £800 to help make this possible. We are very keen to support this exchange as it offers local pupils the opportunity to visit our twin town, practise their language skills and experience the French way of life. We were disappointed that the French school was unable to make a return visit, due largely to their concerns over the situation surrounding Brexit.

  • Madras College Newsletter - Summer Term 1985
    Madras College Newsletter - Summer Term 1985 The month of June is one that most staff and pupils look forward to - for senior pupils it means that SCE exams are done with, replaced by the interest and challenge of new courses; for all of us it signals the approach of the long vacation, and the prospect in the meantime of long hot June days. These we still await. Perhaps July? This has been a session of considerable upheaval in the South Street Building. The creation, within the existing structure, of eight additional practical rooms has involved making some two dozen room changes. In spite of these changes, and the accompanying noises of hammering and drilling, staff and pupils have continued to work away steadily. I appreciate their tolerance. The fact that there has been much less disruption than was at one time feared, is due to the close co-operation of Mr McAra of the Regional Architect's Department, Mr Paterson, Assistant Rector (Administration) and Mr Prunty, Head Janitor, who among them have managed this complex operation with efficiency and good humour. The results of the alterations are a great credit to Mr McAra and the tradesman of Fife Region Works Department. One function of the newsletter is to welcome new members of staff and to thank those who are leaving. This issue is no exception. At the end of the term we lose through retiral four members of staff whose combined service in Madras College and, in some cases, in the old Burgh School totals over 100 years - Mr A.

Distribution During Covid-19 During Covid-19 restrictions we are emailing packs to community fo- rums, organisations, groups and individuals.

The activities are suitable for all adults but particularly those who do not have access to computer and internet. Adapting Packs The packs can be adapted to suit participants needs. For example, Karen McCurry emailed saying their “Our Outreach Worker is visiting people today who live alone with no family or carers coming in, so she is going to print off booklets and do the activities with them.
