Ogilvie Award - October 2023

Farrah McIvor and Summer Weir of S5 were the Ogilvie Award recipients for the month of October.  Part of their commendation was as follows:

'Farrah and Summer have been working for some years now with the Pavillion Project. The Pavillion Youth Café is a charity youth organisation based in Easterhouse who provide young people with a safe, welcoming and alcohol and drug-free environment for children and young people in the local area. The girls give up their time freely during holidays and throughout the week to ensure that children and young adults in their local community have a safe place in which to grow up.  Both girls are incredibly unassuming and exude a humility that is fantastic to see in young people.  Within school, they work tremendously hard in all aspects of their subjects - as any member of staff who teaches them will testify.  Their service to their community most certainly falls into the category of noble and worthwhile.'
