Celebration of STEM

Picture
Students of KGS took part in a Celebration of STEM day held at the Kings Street Halls and hosted by YESC (Young Engineers and Science Clubs Scotland).  KGS has a weekly Computing Club (codeOrkney.club) which meets on Wednesday at lunchtime and encourages students to take part in extracurricular activities and develop personal projects to widen their knowledge and experience.  The Celebration of STEM event was a perfect opportunity for the club members from KGS and students from other schools in Orkney to come together and celebrate the work they had done in the last year, showcasing their STEM projects, meeting prospective employers and have fun with a series of STEM challenges.

SOCIAL ENTERPRISE ACADEMY AWARDS

The KGS Youth Achievement Group were presented with the school award from the Social Enterprise Academy last Thursday in Inverness. They earned the award by making cosy packs and running the Cosy Cafe in school. The proceeds from the cafe went to the Blide Trust and the cosy packs (blanket, hot water bottle, gloves, hat and socks) were donated to Orkney Foodbank. 

The group were also featured in the Schools Social Enterprise edition of The Big Issue, on sale from school at £4. The money raised from the sales will help fund our next enterprise activity.  The group were supported by DYW Orkney and Tesco's Community Champion.
