At Sciennes, we are proud of our longstanding commitment to encouraging pupils to participate and take the lead as Successful Learners and Confident Individuals and to take action as Effective Contributors and Responsible local and global Citizens. In this ‘Year of Young People’ we have sought to extend opportunities further, including pupils taking a strong lead at the Winter and Summer Fairs and redesigning our annual school fundraiser (Meadows Mayhem).
