Port Glasgow Music Teacher Recognised for Outstanding Service

Lodged by Stuart McMillan (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 21 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Julie Ballantyne, principal teacher of music at Port Glasgow High School, on receiving the Rotary Paul Harris Fellowship after being nominated by Greenock Rotary Club for her outstanding service to the community; understands that Julie has worked at the school for 26 years and, during that time, has given up her free time to help with extra-curricular activities including, a soul band, wind band and junior orchestra; further understands that Julie has put many pupils forward for The Inverclyde Music Festival and takes groups to perform at events during the summer holidays; notes that the Rotary Paul Harris Fellowship was established in 1957 and is handed out in memory of Rotary International’s founder, and believes that this accolade is a fitting tribute to Julie’s ongoing commitment to developing young people in Inverclyde’s musical talents.
