Monday, December 10, 2012. DSI) is a public speaking competition for secondary schools with a science twist. St. Columba's are once again involved this year, although our team is now comprised of TY pupils only including Arthur Moffit, Bethany Shiell, Callan Elliot, Cameron Wood, Alina Stiehler, Mark Russell and Piers Morrell. Funded by Discover Science and Engineering. I think it is a brilliant thing to do and I am very glad Mr. Coldrick established it, as it is very beneficial for everyone involved.

Wednesday, May 30, 2012. Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Rome comes to St Columba's. The TY Classical Studies class performed their comic play. In the BSR last Thursday night. Written by Mr McCarthy in the Roman comic style it featured a motley collection of stock comic characters - a lovesick young man, a maiden in distress, a muscular soldier and a clever slave who saves the day. Hurrah! Much hilarity and mirth ensued as love contended with lust, money mixed with mania and brains battled brawn. Well done to all!
