Calderhead High

-

The guest speaker was Dr Fiona Menzies, a former pupil, who lectures at the University of the West of Scotland.

Her teaching interests include host- pathogen interactio­ns, immunology, physiology, and reproducti­ve biology. Dr Menzies gave an inspiratio­nal speech and made everyone laugh as she recalled her first day at Calderhead High School.

The talented pupils provided the excellent entertainm­ent starting with a spirited rendition of ‘Scotland the Brave’ by CHS Pipes & Drums. The vocal group sang “Try Everything”; Steven McLaren and Shana Murray performed ‘Ashokan Farewell’, accompanie­d by Mrs Prucnal; the CHS Samba Band treated everyone to ‘Aquarela do Brasil’; Paige Bryce sang a beautiful rendition of ‘A Thousand Years’; and ‘ These Foolish Things’ was performed by talented flautist Shana Murray. A special mention must go to pupils, Jordan Muir and Andrew Hayburn, who provided excellent technical support.
