Westhill Academy pupils rocked the stage at last night’s “2016, Be Your Best Rock Challenge” winning seven awards including awards for choreography and costumes. They were fantastic!

Their theme was “Truly Scrumptious – in a world full of sweet temptation, will the children be able to resist the Child Catcher’s grasp? Taken in by the lure of drugs, watch how the children’s minds are driven wild. Will they make it out unharmed?”

Amidst a blaze of colour, stirring music and carefully crafted moves, I am happy to say they did.

They did Aberdeenshire proud, as did all entries, with Harlaw Academy the only City school there with an equally outstanding performance.

The third prize went to Turriff Academy with Mintlaw in second place. Fraserburgh Academy were the overall winners (see picture).
