Enjoying a great trip with Madras PE! Man City 1 - 2 Man United. Good to see the pupils--and staff-- enjoying themselves.

Madras Trip: stadium tour finished and now pupils have a chance to look at the museum.

Another day; another stadium. Madras PE

Thank you to my Nat 5 class; who, successfully, managed to trigger every single one of my teacher peeves in one Christmas card.

RUAE revision is easier when it's in colour, right? #N5HigherRUAE

Macaulay Culkin, eat your heart out.

"How was your first week back?"

A great lesson led by Ken Cockburn this morning. We were learning important lessons about the environment. Pupils' work will be displayed as part of the STanza poetry festival at the Byre Theatre.

Today, I think I discovered my new favourite word. The only thing more pleasing than the sight of 'brouhaha' is Google saying it aloud.

Good to get out running again. Stay active. Stay positive. As we look forward to another uncertain term, we as teachers should aim to lead by example in positive thinking and gratitude. #HWB

When I wished for more time to read, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind.

Cheers Ando14. Finally found a decent wall. You're next Ant and Pike. Go give Just for Kicks a like and a follow 👍👏

Wishing the very best to all new probationers finding out their authorities today.

PE Department update 🙁 At the end of this week, Mr. Martin will unfortunately be leaving Madras to take up a new role as Head of Rugby at the Edinburgh Academy. He has written a message to pupils below 👇🏻 We wish Mr. Martin all the best and thank him for his 6 years at Madras!

This has been a very tough year for senior pupils. Seniors, if anyone needs advice regarding their results, please use this information. "Skills Development Scotland’s (SDS) Results Helpline will open at 8am on Tuesday 4 August to help. The number to call is 0808 100 8000."

A massive thank you to one of my S1 pupils for this amazing bookmark. It is definitely an upgrade from the train ticket I have been using!

What you love to see! Mon eh Madras!

I am one week into my new role as Principal Teacher of Flexible Curriculum and Literacy and I am loving it! Although I forgot how daunting it can be starting in a new school...
