SCHOOL'S out at Braehead for 1000 big-hearted Trinity High School pupils.

Kids from the Rutherglen school descended on Xscape for an exciting day out snowboarding and indoor rock climbing.

But the fun trip also had a serious side - raising money to build a special needs school in India.

As part of Trinity's annual fundraiser for Scottish Catholic International Aid Foundation, pupils were sponsored to take part in activities at the leisure complex.

Head teacher John Nellaney said: "It was a really big, fun day out but it had a serious side as well.

We had a time of reflection where the pupils think about the children they are helping in Bangalore. Our school has raised more money for SCIAF than any other in Scotland."

The hard-working pupils managed to earn more than £10,000 to send to Bangalore.

And a few lucky children will get to see the results of their cash first hand when pupils are chosen to travel to India.
