The

over the years have represented the school at a high

Colin is a good example. He was one of only six

to the House of Commons when Colin helped the team
easily defeat six MPs! (more)

Wuji
Music |

Many
young people dream of playing in a rock band, but
very few ever do anything about it. However, three
Crieff High pupils Jake McGarry, Ewan Simpson and
Andy Donaldson took a major step towards their
fulfilling their ambitions when, having formed a
band called Kuji Wuji, they released their first CD
while they were still all under 16! Better
still, the recording received a rave review in the
national press. (more)
