October break isn’t always a break. The 1XI hockey teams were in for an S&C session and a pitch session ahead of their return to school. A number of the U15 teams joined them to get their first taste of S&C as well. #acciesvalues

The 1st XI hockey teams had an excellent tour to the Netherlands over the October break. Based in Rotterdam with matches vs HC Breda, HC Schiedam and HC Barendrecht who all supplied perfect opposition. @edinburghacad #acciesvalues

The hockey tour has landed in Amsterdam and are ready to go! The boys and girls 1st XI have 3 matches each over the next 4 days.

Thank you @Trinity_sports1 for hosting EA U18 basketball team today in a friendly match at Bangholm. A brilliant, end-to-end match that came down to the buzzer, Trinity prevailed in the last play 58-56. Credit to both teams in the spirit the match was played! @edinburghacad

A superb and hotly contested internal @RFAFives fixture saw the @edinburghacad U16 Girls edge out the U14 Boys (85-75). First ever Fives match for the boys who are already planning a rematch! #fivesthrivesatEA

A big thank you to @Fettes_Sport for hosting our Senior Basketball team in a friendly this afternoon at Westwoods. So good to see our teams all-round improvement, in a fast paced, high intensity match. Onwards & upwards EA 🏀🎉🙏💙

Thanks to @GWC_Sport for playing EA in the first Basketball Conference match of thr new season. Watsons were too good & enjoyed a comfortable victory, but kudos for our players sticking in there & never giving up #basketballwasthewinner

A very close game against @strath_sport tonight for our 1st 🏑 boys. Coming out with a narrow & very hard fought win. 👏Thomas. T for his hat-tick 🙌 Robbie W for playing 1st team Hockey & Rugby in the same week!

A great first Fives match of the term for @edinburghacad as the U18 Boys took on the local Caledonian Club. A win for experience but a great opportunity for the boys to play against experienced adult players.

Another relay medal in Lima! 🙌 This time it's bronze in the women's 4x400m 🥉 Amazing stuff from Charlotte Henrich, Emma Holmes, Kara Dacosta, Rebecca Grieve, Jess Astill, and Nandy Kihuyu 👏 #WorldAthleticsU20 | #WhereItStarts

Thanks to @dollaracademy for a brilliant set of 🏉 fixtures. Well done 👏 to our 1st team overturning a large first half deficit.

The summer holidays saw a number of EA hockey players representing Scotland in big tournaments. Amelia Wilson, Eva Hodge, Jenna Park, Rory McLean, Anika Miedema and Emily McLean were all selected to face Europe’s best. Mr Wall and Mrs Johnston were also coaching #EArepresenting

That's a wrap for EA Cricket, another successful year done & dusted as 1st XI finished the final match of season with a narrow loss to @RossallSport at the annual festival. Two half-centuries for T. Murray & J. Lawrie were highlights. Thanks @RossallSport for hosting us 🙏💥🏏☝️
