Sir Malcolm Bruce, Member of Parliament for Gordon Constituency which includes both Dyce and Newmachar, visited the school on Thursday 22nd August. Sir Malcolm spoke to National 4/5 Modern Studies pupils about his work in Parliament and in the constituency reflecting on changes during his 30 year career in the House of Commons. Pupils were particularly interested in what ideas drew him into politics in his teenage years and his work with the Overseas Aid Select Committee.
Following a very successful teacher exchange to our link schools over the summer we are now looking forward to hosting two teachers, one from Kenya and one from South Sudan. They will be in school, visiting classes from Monday 9th September for one week. We intend to entertain them after school with a variety of activities, please watch this page to see what we are doing and if you can be involved.
Congratulations to the Dyce Academy DofE Gold Group who recently completed their four day Qualifying Expedition in the Outer Hebrides. They coped admirably with the challenges posed by the weather and landscape using to good effect, all they had learned in training and practice expeditions. We look forward to similar successes in our Bronze and Silver Groups who go out on their Qualifying Expeditions in September.
Congratulations to everyone on your results today. We hope you have achieved what you wanted.
