"Classrooms to Care Homes": Our local residents received calendars created in ICT, art work, and letters pupils wrote during English lessons. Residents were also treated to a performance from our choir. @MissSloan4, Mr Cumine and Mrs Paton had a wonderful time. @theparkmains

Well done to all pupils involved in creating and delivering our "Classroom to Care Homes" Christmas packages this year. The residents from our local care homes received their gifts today. Our pupils and the residents had a great time! @theparkmains

In English, pupils celebrated Human Rights Day by learning about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. They used excellent persuasive language skills to write letters for Amnesty International’s ‘Write for Rights’ Campaign. @theparkmains

Every English teacher in our department was delighted with the attitude and effort from our young people today. We hope you're proud of yourselves. It was great to see you all and we're looking forward to next week. Keep it up!

@MissSloan4 @livrarialello Absolutely beautiful, @MissSloan4!

Our S4 boys who attended the powerful author visit with Graeme Armstrong on Friday were still talking about it today. The fact that some of them read the full novel this weekend tells you all you need to know! Thank you @G_Armstrong21 @ParkMainsHSLib @theparkmains

Impressed with the dedication from every pupil in 2B this morning - on the final day of this term. They are determined to complete their personal reflective essays before the summer break. S2 Superstars. 💪😎🌟 @theparkmains

Excellent effort from Mrs MacLennan's Higher English class this afternoon. They used the Cornell note taking method to organise information for their Spoken Language Assessment. Keep up the great work! @theparkmains

If you are interested in helping with this, please speak to Mrs Gordon or Mr Naismith. @theparkmains @EngPMHS
