The final day with @dhs_pastoral. Tay house today, still a wild day but drier! The groups were fantastic and had a great day. Thanks to all involved
A wild day with @dhs_pastoral Ness house was out today, and the weather was awful! However it didn't deter the teams and they had a fantastic day.
The weather turned out okay in the end for @dhs_pastoral Lomond house. The first of 3 days, hopefully, the rest of the groups are as good as these 😀
Team Lomond at Lochwinnoch. Having a fab team building day despite the rain ☔️ 🥰❤️ @MissRalston_DHS @DHS_pastoral @DHS @AC_Drumchapel @DHSlomond #bestteam#bestday#teamlomond @metrooutdoors

Thank you, a great year group who made for a brilliant week. Lots of fun was had, some great memories made, and I'm sure they'll have a fantastic year.
