Thanks to Beverly and Peter from the Royal Scottish Society of Arts for inviting our Beekeeping students to their talk, Inside The Brain of a Bee, hosted by Professor Barbara Webb. The talk was fascinating and linked bee activity to bio-robotics #STEM 🐝🐝

What a fantastic achievement from the Berwickshire High School team!

The INSET day gave us a fantastic opportunity to share practice across subjects and discuss pedagogy with colleagues.

Come and join the team!

I got this beautiful, handmade Christmas card today from a student. I love it! Chemistree🎄❤️

It's great to be at the forefront of education reform and to be recognised for all the work that has gone into our Knowledge Based Curriculum.

It's been a fantastic two days! I'm so proud of this group and the resilience they've shown. One more walking day to go. Let's do this! #silverDofE #DofE ⛺☀️🥾

Our Silver students have been out on their practice expedition the past 2 days, the resilience they have is brilliant. One more nights camp and a day walk tomorrow and they are one step closer to bagging their award. Proud of them all 🥾🏕️

A fantastic experience from Scottish Ambulance Well done to Sarah in the BHS Medic Society for leaving this legacy for our students. 🚑

My S1 class had a great time looking at their copper sulfate crystals under the microscope in our lesson today. I was so impressed with their skills! 🔬 #STEM #AimforBest #Science

The NPA beekeeping class completed a pollen microscopy activity today. We analysed pollen from the bottom board of the hive and even managed to spot a varroa. #beekeeping #pollen

What a great article from one of our NPA Beekeeping students. 😊 🐝 #beekeeping @BeeologyEd Scottish Beekeepers 🐻Berwickshire HS Latest Career News!!! 🤝 📣

More fantastic work with the NPA beekeeping class today. We were learning about the anatomy of bees and viewed them at magnification 🐝🔬 @BeeologyEd SBC Education Scottish Borders Council Equity Scottish Beekeepers Berwickshire News

Another great day out at the hives Marchmont @BeeologyEd Students were demonstrating and being assessed on a number of practical skills. The focus of the inspection was to make hive observations then go into the brood box to check for eggs, larvae and food stores. 🐝🐝

Our new cohort of beekeepers had a fantastic first hive visit this week. The focus was on safety, using a smoker and completing a hive inspection. Thanks to our partners Marchmont for your continued support. #beekeeping #level5NPA 🐝☀️

My S2 class has been learning about alternative fuels such as hydrogen and ethanol. Today we prepared and launched hydrogen rockets along the science corridor with some impressive distances! 🥽🚀🚀 #STEM #CHEMISTRY

Well done to the BHS Silver DofE group who completed their practice expedition. I'm so proud of this team. Their positive attitudes shone throughout the three days ☀️
Thanks to copathshop for your support. #dofe #SilverDofE
