50 of our senior pupils swapped the classroom for the kitchen as we welcomed the Royal Marine & Royal Navy Education Awareness Team for a brilliant session on Tuesday.
There was good food, great stories and plenty of laughs, with a few important life lessons thrown in too… motivation, discipline and resilience are pretty handy skills when it comes to life beyond school!
A brilliant session, some seriously good scran and plenty for our young people to take away.

On Monday 7th September the S3 Health and Food Technology classes took a trip to Wester Hardmuir Farm to explore sustainability and eco-farming.
The pupils were given a tour around the strawberry and raspberry polytunnels and the apple orchards. Will, the Farm owner educated the pupils on the processes involved with growing and looking after the fruits and how they work with the environment to produce and freshest and tastiest fruit they can. This included the use of bees and insects, the use of wild flowers, the creation of boreholes to supply the water, and the use of coconut compost! All of this information helped the pupils understand more about sustainable farming and how we can work with the environment to put food from farm to fork.
This trip was funded through Tesco Stronger Starts. A big thank you to the parents who put the blue tokens into the box to support us and to the staff at Tesco Stronger Starts for granting us the funding.
Also, a huge thank you to Will and Sarah at Wester Hardmuir Farm for letting us onto the farm, for our brilliant tour and for letting us eat so much fruit!
