Welcome to the Alford Academy Interact Page

Alford Interact Club began in November 2009 when a core group of pupils responded to an invitation from the Rotary Club of Alford and District to start a Club in the school. By the end of 2009, the Club was well organized and very active with ambitious plans.  This year, the Interact Club has been preparing to raise funds for and support a range of local and international charities and groups.  Some of the events and charities are:  ‘MacMillan’ coffee morning, ‘Poppy Appeal Scotland’, ‘Children in Need’ as well as their nominated charities.

We are also supporting the shoebox appeal this year.

We have 2 groups running at lunchtimes; S1-3 on a Tuesday and S4-6 on a Wednesday.  Teachers Mrs Rees-Jenkins, Miss Lovelock and Mrs Fraser support the pupils.
