GFG crack the story of Ruth and Naomi

Ruth and 'Naomi' ponder life!

The 'workers' wisper some nonsense to Boaz about Ruth!

Over the last two weeks, members of GFG have been discovering more from the Old Testament about the story of Ruth and her mother-in-law Naomi. This story of friendship, love and relationships was dramatically re-lived by some of the group with the others providing an appreciative audience.
Working at relationships in a team was also crucial for the group as they worked together to create egg-protection systems earlier in the evening. Their results were tested from a great height, resulting in team 3 squeazing a victory for their creative parachute-making skills. GFG will be moving on to look at Samuael over the next couple of weeks.

Special but Solemn Times of Remembrance

On Friday past Oban High School pupils set time aside to remember those who had made sacrifices for others in times of conflict. Pupils from last June's WW1 Battlefields Trip to Belgium and France shared thoughts on their experiences from the trip. The pupils were supported by Ewen Munro and Rev. James Beaton of the school Chaplaincy Team, as well as pupil members of the Air, Sea and Army Cadets. Invited guests from the British Legion joined the high school in 2 minutes silence, followed by  the laying of a wreathe on the school's memorial board. Throughout the week leading to the Friday, the OHS Chaplaincy team had hosted Chaplaincy Assembly week based on the theme 'Remember', using memorable film clips from the film 'Up' and from Poppy Scotland.
'Well done and thank you' from all on the chaplaincy team to all pupils and staff who took part in the Time of Remembrance.

Sparkle, Dance and Games as GFG Part-ay

The Tent of Chat!

It was Sparkle party night recently at GFG, with loads of fun, games and food. Time was taken in 'the tent of chat' to have a 'chat' around the meaning of Halloween and exploring different perspectives on views and opinions as to its significance.

Games, games, games

As the evening moved on 3 teams were challenged to create their very own 'Sparkle People' which produced some extremely creative results. Games included apples, water, dohnuts and lots and lots of dancing.
