John Muir Book and Film

Last term a group of Currie pupils met the illustrator of a graphic novel about the life of John Muir, the great conservationist. We looked through drafts of his drawings on two occasions and gave him our suggestions and ideas. The book has now been published and a class set has been sent to every single High School in Scotland!  The names of all the pupils are in the back of the book and we have our own class set to use in school.

The John Muir Trust have just made a beautiful 5 minute film about how young people feel about the legacy of John Muir featuring some of the CCHS pupils involved in the project. Do have a look by clicking on the link below, its a great film!
