Bo'ness Academy pupils joined other secondary
students from Falkirk area at Falkirk Town Hall on January 28th
2009 to participate in the RED BOOK AWARDS. The S3 all girl class
delivered a powerful drama presentation of 'Worse than Boys'; the
book written by this year's winning author, Catherine Macphail.
Special thanks to Mrs Gilchrist for her assistance with the stage
fighting scenes and Mrs Cunningham for her assistance with the
selection of music and a huge thank you to the girls for being
excellent representatives of our school!
During the ceremony; Rhian Allan had the pleasure of introducing
Catherine MacPhail to the audience whilst Lauren Simpson won a prize
for the best book review from our school. In addition to this Bo'ness
Academy girls got a special mention for the best team effort in the
red accessory category - they all wore red ties, painted their nails
red and the two separate gangs performing; 'Lip Gloss Girls' wore
red bows whilst 'The Hell Cats' wore red/white wrist bands on one
arm! Overall it was a fantastic day out
