2cinha Favela popped up on the hinterland of the school today. After sudden tropical downpours (delivered by an irn bru bottle), we lost two of our residents homes to water damage. We had some debate over design principles but the others all free standing and waterproof.

Our latest beekeeping recruits. Curious, brave and game, popped in on Thursday for a wee look at our colony in their new home. Lots of work going on in the new storey (the super). Hope to see you both again soon!

Superb performance from S3 in our topical geography debate. The Johns v the Keirs (in full barrister mode) fighting it out with the facts. Well done especially to Isla I, Emily T, Connor, Steven, Jamie and Josh who filled the speaker roles so well

No photos as all suited up, but positive signs that we will have two honey bee hives operating fully soon. Queen cells in queenless half of split and lots of young larvae in other queened hive. Also plenty of space to help manage swarming. Thanks Anna, Matthew and Christopher

So, today, we trialled some CPAG in Scotland learning activities about the cost of the school day. Here are some of our ideas. These led to some great conversations.

More from our cost of the school day sessions. Many discussions about costs that people had not considered and also about it not being feasible to simply transfer costs elsewhere. Lots of students talking about fundraising but also lack of knowledge on entitlements

Finally, this is part perception and part research- the groups put their money proportionately across where they thought it would go. Interesting patterns

S4 History pupils touring Glasgow today to learn about our city’s past links with the trade of enslaved African people. Well done to all pupils who completed the walking tour in a very warm & sunny Glasgow! ☀️

Just a wee personal thanks to Ciara and Anna for their excellent tuition of Orla and Emma, who were at their first bee club today. The girls took responsibility for our main hive and showed Orla/ Emma the ropes - well done to both newcomers too.

A brilliant effort from 2B students on the Zero Waste challenge last week. Well done to all involved. Some pictures of successful completions plus a tick list of all the ones we managed.

Although it started raining, we managed to lift some of our beautiful honey from Hive 2. Boxed, secured and ready for extracting next week. Great work from all involved. Apologies to Jessica about the sting 🐝

We all have homes to go to so have had to stop the production line at 15 - reckon we have about 1.5 times that still to jar. Not a bad haul from our lovely bees!
