Beehive Fundraising
Sgoil a’ Bhac has had a connection with the Beehive School in Malawi for a few years.
The Beehive School provides good Primary education for almost 200 pupils in the town of Mzuzu. It was established by Niall Dorey, a Scottish teacher, who now heads a team of mainly African staff. The school has been operating in temporary accommodation until the present time but now needs to build permanent classrooms in order to remain open.
Sgoil a’ Bhac had a fundraising day in order to make a contribution to building work. Friday 19th March was a ‘Back to the Beehive’ day, when pupils and staff came to school dressed as bees or in black and yellow/orange clothes. There was also an evening social for pupils from P6 – S2.
Euroquiz 2010
Back School were the winners of the Western Isles Euroquiz 2010. Eight schools participated in the competition this year. In the final round Back Primary competed with Iochdar Primary through a video link. The children will now compete in the Regional Final in Edinburgh later on in the year.
Mòd Ionadail Leòdhais – June 2009
Sgoil a’ Bhac pupils had a particularly successful week at the Lewis Mòd this year with a large number of individual, group and aggregate prizes coming to the school. This picture of all participants with their trophies speaks louder than words.
This success does not happen by accident: pupils, staff, parents and community volunteers such as Catriona (Choileir) Stewart and Norman Smith put a great deal of effort into preparing for the event.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank An Comunn Staff and the volunteers who organise and run the Mòd.
