Last night we celebrated the young people who have achieved their GOLD Duke of Edinburgh award. They and Mr Fairlie led us though their journey from S3 starting bronze to now with photos, videos, presentations and anecdotes. So proud of their resilience and consistency. Huge thanks to staff and parents who organise and volunteer to make this possible. The highest level of participation in the awards of any school in Perth & Kinross.

Wishing the best of luck to our talented Performing Arts students who have entered this year’s Perform in Perth! 🍀

Good luck to all Perth Academy pupils competing and performing in various classes at Perform in Perth over the next couple of weeks. 🎶🩰🎭🎤

A power of work has gone in to getting everyone ready to step out onto that stage. Take a breath, reflect on all the work that got you there, and enjoy the moment.

We’d love to hear how you get on in your different classes, so keep us posted!

There’s a rumour that the Drama Club are baking some tasty treats with tea & coffee also available to enjoy during the performances!

Definitely worth coming along if you can! 🎭
