“The curriculum is so much necessary raw material but warmth is the vital element for the growing soul of the child.”

Carl Gustav Jung Morrison’s Academy is a busy place both in and out of the classroom. Visitors often comment on the fact that relationships between pupils and staff are excellent. We believe that the multitude of after-school activities that we offer is a vital ingredient in fostering this atmosphere of mutual respect.

Pupils are encouraged to try out new activities and find one or two that they enjoy: from debating to the Duke of Edinburgh Award, from chess to climbing and from kayaking to karate – there is something for every pupil at Morrison’s. We are very proud of the large numbers of pupils who take advantage of the opportunities we offer them in the areas of music, drama and sport as well as the smaller numbers of pupils who attend equally valuable clubs such as Debating and Chess.

Valuable life skills such as working as part of a team, problem-solving and socialising are learned in a way no textbook could ever put across and life-long friendships are formed by pupils (sometimes in different year groups) through shared interests. We hope you will be impressed by what we have to offer and we hope that you will encourage your child to come along and get involved. The fun that is to be had from an extra curricular activity is likely to be remembered long after the facts painstakingly memorised for an exam have been forgotten!

“For the great majority, their most profound learning experience takes place outside the classroom.”

John Abbott

The Debating Society offers pupils in the Secondary School the opportunity to learn the skills of debating and to put these into practice both within the school and also in a range of competitions against other schools. The essence of debating is to listen, think and respond to what others say. Early in the session new members are tutored in these vital skills. They are taught how to structure a speech, how to rebut a point made by an opponent, and how to summarize a side’s case. Pupils who show particular promise will be invited to compete in a number of competitions, including the Courier Debating Competition and the English Speaking Union Debating Competition. More experienced debaters train for the schools competitions run by the major universities. Motions in these competitions are announced only fifteen minutes before the start of the debate so pupils need to practise the skills and team-work of short-preparation motions.

In addition to the above, pupils have the opportunity to earn points for their houses in the annual inter-house debating competitions. In the days leading up to a competition, pupils will be expected to train at lunchtime and after school. This represents a very considerable commitment to the society. The dates and timings of these other lunchtime and after-school meetings will be announced.

All are very welcome to join the society and share in this valuable and entertaining educational opportunity.

Karate Club (Tora Kai) Thursday 17:00-18.00

Gym

P1-S6, Parents & Staff

Mrs ForbesMr Clifford.

Shokatan Karate is by far the biggest single karate style in the world today. It can

be practised safely by anyone regardless of age or fitness level. The practice of shokatan promotes total body fitness and also physical and moral strength.

Above all it is a system of self defence without equal. Tora-kai is a large organisation with clubs in many schools throughout Scotland.

Towards the end of each term, in addition to the weekly training sessions, there will be a course and grading examination with the National coach.

The Karate Club, is open to all pupils, staff and parents. Please contact Mrs Hilary Forbes for further information or come along to the class. Kayaking Club Thursday 15:35-16:45 Pool S1-S6 Mr Lovegrove

The Kayaking Club meets after school on Thursdays. It aims to introduce as many pupils as possible to the sport. During the early part of the academic year, while the weather is generally good, our more experienced paddlers are taken to Loch Earn or similar water to test their skills in the great outdoors.

After the October holiday when the early evenings hinder such activity, we invite a new group of pupils to join the club. They are trained in the school swimming pool, learning the basic strokes and safety procedures. All will grow in confidence and attain greater control; some may learn to roll the boat. In the summer term, this group of pupils will be given the opportunity to put their skills into practice on real water, normally Loch Earn.

During the year there may be opportunities to kayak a stretch of the River Tay. The only limitations to membership are the practical considerations of equipment and the size of the swimming pool. Learning to Learn Club Monday (from Oct to May)

It is hoped that through participation in this club, netball will be regarded as an enjoyable, skilful and positive experience.

Young Enterprise Monday 17:00-18:00

O.S. 14 S6

Mr McMillan

The Business Studies department, together with advisers from industry, run the Young Enterprise (Scotland) Scheme in school whereby members of S6 form themselves into a company in order to sell products or services and hopefully make a profit and learn a life-skill or two; indeed some may even find their niches in life!

“Achievers” are encouraged to learn from their mistakes and as the company develops, teachers and advisors should find themselves being used less and less by the company board which comprises seven elected directors, namely the Managing Director, the Company Secretary, the Finance Director, the Marketing Director, the Sales Director, the Human Resources Director, the Production Director and the IT Director.

Where appropriate, these directors will gather a team around them to carry out the day-to-day tasks associated with their function. They will be required to attend a weekly company meeting to report on any progress made.
