The Early Learning and Childcare class had great fun this morning carving pumpkins. This linked in to our topic on Play where we learn all about how play supports children’s development. The students did a great job in putting their theory into action.
Happy Halloween!
We’re thrilled to share with you the S2 pupils that have been selected by their science teacher as Science Stars for term 1! These young scientists have shown great curiosity, dedication, and achievement in their studies. From excellent effort to perfect homework exercises and kindness to all. Those selected really have gone above and beyond!
S1-S3 pupils were recognised for their exceptional performance in ICT/Business during Term One. The Business Brains award is given to one student per class by their teacher, making it a significant achievement. Well done to all the winners and keep up the hard work!
Drama had a great day out today at Eden Court today seeing Blood Brothers. And no, we weren’t crying. It was just allergies.
We are delighted to show off these aerial shots of the new astro pitch and outdoor Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA). Both facilities will be open for use after the October half-term. These facilities will help further increase the quality and quantity of PE, sport and activity at the school and allow us to offer an increased range of sporting experiences, including hockey and tennis, as well as after school fixtures under the floodlights. If there are any sports clubs in the area that are interested in promoting their sport/activity through the PE curriculum and/or getting involved in our extra-curricular activities at the school then please get in touch.
There is a new housing development going into Barn Church Road and as part of it the Developers are designing a park, which they would really like your opinions on. There is a one question online form for you to complete to help influence the design of the park. Please take this opportunity to influence your local community. The form will be live until the end of term.

Following consultation with staff, Pupil Council groups, and our Parent Council, our mobile phone policy has been significantly up-dated. It is Culloden Academy’s response to the Scottish Government’s Guidance on Mobile Phones in Scotland’s Schools that was published in August 2024. Our new policy, outlined clearly in the letter to parents at the link below and introduced to pupils at Year Group Assemblies this week, comes into effect after the October break.
On Wednesday 25th September 2024 the S2 boys football team won their first match of the season in a high scoring game, at home, against Milburn Academy. The team took the lead through James Maclaren and then got a quick goal after from Alistar Grant. Just before half-time James got his second. After half-time they played calmly and composed and scored more goals through James and Jack. The match finished 6-2 and Culloden progress onto the next round.
