KA CDT Dept.

Pupils from @KilsythAcademy climbed Tinto and Ben Nevis to raise funds for @StAndrewHospice . With gift aid they raised more than £4000. Well done everyone.

We introduced a new project which our S3 D&M trialled. Now our S2’s have tried it and have been working hard to finish their mobile phone stands before moving into S3. Here are some of the excellent results 🙌 Pupils chose the level of complexity at each stage 🥇 @KA_success

Last week we had our Primary 7 pupils up in CDT. They done a great job making their elastic band cars with some exceptional results, great work @kilsythprimary1 @balmalloch @Chapelgreen_PS @LennoxtownP @KilsythAcademy

2.2 have almost completed their mobile phone amplifiers. Some excellent work again.

The CDT department and @RotaryKilsyth hosted the Young Technologist Competition. Thank you to all NLC teams and well done to all the pupil and winners, especially our Advanced team who won their category for the fourth year in a row @KilsythAcademy @KA_success wardropephotography
