This Hogmanay, we're asking residents in our local area to refrain from setting off fireworks, following the death of our red panda kit Roxie on bonfire night. As always, we will do all we can to protect our animals from fireworks, including keeping them indoors and providing deep bedding where possible to reduce the impact of the noise. @Edinburgh_CC cannot create a fireworks exclusion zone around the zoo in time for Hogmanay due to the minimum consultation period required, so we are asking residents to help us by not setting off fireworks which may frighten animals. Thank you 💛

@canaan_lane_pri How lovely!

Primary 3 have curated a stunning winter art gallery. We love to see our learners using different art techniques to express themselves. 🙌 #thecanaanlaneway #childledlearning

Happy birthday to renowned neuropsychologist Brenda Milner, who is celebrating her 106th birthday today! 🎈 🎁 While she may not count her age among her many achievements, in this video she did share a few thoughts (and a bit of folklore) about birthdays past and present.

Colleagues, please complete our new online mandatory training course about the importance of completing online mandatory training courses.

@thbaketal @EdinUniLBC @SimonRCox @semacpherson @thbaketal knowing you, you’d be able to pull off a great and inspiring talk on anything really, including those themes!

In 2016 we @EdinUniLBC @SimonRCox @semacpherson published a paper on bilingualism & cognitive functions, but the title included the metaphorical subtitile "A tale of chickens & eggs". Since then, I got many invitations to speak about poultry, diary, food, nutrition, even pasta...

It’s always been a struggle - I try to keep my private life private, but sometimes it spills into my songs. youtu.be/LgG4KWvbRRE?fe…

@professor_dave You sound like a wonderful dad and team. Take great care.

It's those moments when I realise that in many ways, I'm all that he's got, and to be honest, I just feel sorry for him.

Today, another kid said to the 10yo: 'you don't even have a mum or a proper family, why dont you f*** off and try to find them'. The 10yo called him a 'stupid b*st*rd'. They both got in trouble. I just put an arm round him and said 'well done'. #adoption
