As we enter the holy month of fasting and prayer for young Muslim pupils, in our school community we wish a blessed Ramadan. Our prayer room in the Rector's corridor and also the availability of Tech 3 for any young people who would like space away from others eating food.

QuAlity work from the YPI finalists 👏🏻 well done to all!🤩

And last, but not least, to explore Edinburgh Castle was S2 Abbey yesterday - checking out the suits of armour, getting a fright from the 1’oclock gun and making memories with pals. We even found a Queen Anne building! #QAHSontour @qahsinfo

As we make our return bus journey home we reflect on an eventful day exploring the castle, museum and nipping past the Parliament building and witnessing some real life protests! @qahsinfo @QAHSHistory #activelearning

Thankfully the reign has held off and S2 Bruce pupils are enjoying their trip to the castle 🏰@qahsinfo @QAHSHistory #outdoorlearning

S2 Carnegie are awa hame to the glorious kingdom! @qahsinfo

As we cross the Firth of Forth the partial eclipse is upon us - sign of a good day ahead! Geography in action! @qahsinfo
