We started the week at Inverness Royal Academy this morning for a practice sharing final. Teachers from several Highland schools watched the final and spent some time afterwards reflecting on their own YPI Programme. Such rich discussions

What a fantastic YPI Final at John Paul Academy! Every single group clearly displayed their passion and commitment towards their chosen charity. It was a tough decision, but with the help of the head boy and girl, local charity Common Wheel were the proud recipients of the £3000 cheque.

After lots of deliberation it was decided the team representing The Cookie Jar Foundation hit all the success criteria and were awarded worthy winners, well done team.

We started today’s YPI assembly at McLaren High School with a moving poetry reading and bugle playing by pupils before observing a 2 minutes silence.

A poignant and fitting beginning to our discussions on why we use YPI to take time to think of others and use our talents to raise awareness.
