A great session with University of Aberdeen for our National 5 French speaking. Pupils had the opportunity to practice speaking their French monologue about their Holiday or School topic. The pupils were provided feedback about pronunciations and how it can be improved 👏.

We had The Rowett Institute visit our school to support with the curriculum delivery for Home Economics. One of the activities completed by the pupils involved using tools and platforms to analyse meals and their nutritional values. Thank you Rowett Institute !

We're excited to announce that our collaboration with SLB has allowed eight of our S4 pupils to nearly complete their SLB STEAM Pathways. This has been an incredible opportunity for them to gain insights into STEM careers and learn what they entail. Thank you 👏.

Fantastic morning at Aberdeen Biodiversity Centre with our Advanced Higher Biology students! Enjoyed an insightful presentation from Dr. Martin Barker and some hands-on fieldwork, including pond dipping and pitfall traps.

It's the final day of our Crew Outward Bound Expedition! It's been an amazing day for students to challenge themselves and step out of their comfort zones. This morning, they faced their fear of heights on the zip line!
