WHITE MIGHT!

RUGBY fans already will know that a former pupil of Cults Academy has been playing in the Scottish Rugby team, but did you realise that he had been a pupil at Culter School , too?

Yes, Jason White attended Culter Primary School before moving on to Cults Academy where he first started to play rugby. He played for Aberdeen Wanderers then Glasgow. It was from here that Jason made his international debut in April 2000, in the win over England , and later, in February 2002, he was voted Scotland ’s Man of the Match against England . He now plays ‘lock’ for Sale Sharks and has a promising career ahead of him.

As I write this (late October) rugby enthusiasts await the Scottish game against Fiji in a few days time. We will know the result by the time you are reading this! The matches involving our Scottish team so far have been horrendous, but you can’t keep we Scots from hoping/ wishing / praying /lamenting/ crying / smiling (unusual) - delete where necessary.
