The Schools’ Bible Project is a National Writing Competition. Pupils were required to choose and carefully study a Bible passage from The Wedding at Cana, The Feeding of the Five Thousand, The Raising of Lazarus, The Last Supper or The Resurrection. They then had to write about the event in their own words, as if they had been present. They could choose to be one of the Biblical characters or invent a new character and tell it from their perspective.

The following Academy pupils were Prize Winners – Poppy Cumming 10B, Poppie Graham 9C, Kyle Purdey 9G, Katlyn Herron 10C, Joash Sathish 9G, Blake Ferguson 9B, Esther Campbell 9A, Alexander Beattie 9A, Hannah Marshall 10C, Alanna Gracey 10 B, Jack Duke 10C, Ella Scott 9G, Hannah Kerr 9D, Lucy Gough 10B, Mollie Gailey 10B, and Emma Graham 10B.
