Callum and Shaun successfully carried out their final practical assessment for their National 5 Leadership Award recently. On a day out at Glentress they led a group of cyclists (pupils and staff) on an off-road trail ride, demonstrating key leadership skills.

Both boys were commended for their confident and thorough approach during their assessments, good awareness of others whilst leading the trails, and their enthusiasm and commitment.

Earlier this term, the Young Leaders, whose number has been boosted by the recruitment of Lewis, learned about different leadership styles and gave a presentation demonstrating their knowledge and understanding of leadership.

Our Young Leaders also organised Falkland House School’s Junior Badminton Competition. They called the order of play, upheld the rules, kept scores, helped the competitors with generalities such as warm up, and provided them with quality feedback.

A very well done to the boys for the effort and attitude they have put in, and for their levels of maturity and responsibility which will serve them well in the future.
