KGS METASAGA 2010.- TRANSITIONS {map.jpg}
Current S1 - S3 pupils have created a Metasaga for the incoming S1s. The main aim of this Metasaga is to give S1s a tour with a difference in order to help them to feel more connected with the KGS community and to start thinking about their place within their new school. We wanted to dispel their fear and prompt them to think more reflectively about what their move to a new school could mean for them in terms of their own journey through education and life. We are also viewing it as a way to record the life of the old building before we move to the new improved KGS. We hope that you enjoy this virtual tour as well!

The Library
The Library is a very important part of our school. It was extended in 1985 to accommodate over ten-thousand books! The weirdest thing that ever happened in the Library was that someone jumped out of a window – don’t try it! We use it for studying, research, or just finding a good book to read in our spare time.
COMING SOON - MORE ON STUDY & RESEARCH IN THE LIBRARY
How do you escape from the world? By reading a book we can travel through time and go all over the world! All our problems and worries can be forgotten, we can just leave the world we’re in and go to 1675 or Africa or even outer space.
Do you feel satisfied after reading?

Drama Hut
COMING SOON A WHOLE NEW LOOK AT DRAMA
{101_0170.jpg} The Drama hut was not always a drama hut: previously, it was used by the Orkney College as a carpentry room and it was changed into the drama hut and drama room in 2002 / 2003. The upstairs of the drama hut was added in 2000 because more room was needed for props and costumes.
Drama is a great way for S1s to get to know each other and it is also a great way for everybody to get to know each other because it involves working together in groups. Drama develops confidence, imagination and self expression – it is also LOADS of fun!
3. Have you ever pretended to be somebody you're not ?
