Bursary Awards |
Burary Awards
Each year the Old Students’ Association
awards bursaries.
Congratulations to the winners of the 2008 bursaries:
Rachel Clark - winner
Heather Braid and Jill Kidd - runners up
Well Done to them !!
About the Bursary Award Scheme
In 1995, after much discussion in committee and with the then Director,
Mr David Bayman [who consulted College staff], it was decided to offer two
bursaries:
- 1) to pursue further development work concerned with the promotion
of excellence in teaching of physical education.
- 2) to undertake research and development work involving physical
education and community linked initiatives.
Since then each year we [speosa] have awarded two bursaries to 4th year
students. Every year we are delighted at the calibre of students being
presented. This makes our job very hard, but it is a joy to be involved
and reassuring that the standard remains so high.

This beautiful piece of sculpture by Tom Mackie was presented to
the department of Physical Education, Sport & Leisure Studies (PESLS)
at The Moray House School of Education, Holyrood, Edinburgh. It commemorates
the relocation of Physical Education from the Cramond site to the Holyrood
site which took place in October 2001.
