Mrs Collins and Mr Monty enjoyed their part of the Aberdeen Stadium tour for #GooseWeek Our Pupils were fantastic and seemed to enjoy every minute soaking up the history and tradition #COYR 😜

Best of luck to all @PortyAcad pupils sitting there #Chemistry exams today. We’re all thinking about you ! 🧪🥼

The pupils were designing a revised Portlethen retail park focussing on sustainability and accessibility for all! Our young people made a video presentation, spoke to a room full of professional designers and interacted with other schools from around Scotland. 🥼👏🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Throwback to earlier this month when the @PortyAcad STEM Club were picked for the final 10 out of 65 entries of the NCR STEM challenge @ the @V_and_A in Dundee. All 8 pupils showed tremendous desire and enthusiasm and made us all very #ProudOfPorty

Time for some modeling too! #getinvolved

Some more pics of fancy equipment and happy young people!! #saltersfestivalofchemistry @Salters_Inst @aberdeenuni

Our new s4 and 5 went to @aberdeenuni for the @Salters_Inst Festival of Chemistry. They did a great job synthesising aspirin 🙌🏻
