This summer, 40 primary and secondary school teachers are taking part in a unique summer school to introduce filmmaking as a newly available subject in Scottish schools.

The two-week course represents a further step towards establishing Scotland’s first Film & Screen Curriculum.

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow bright and early at 5.30am. Please come to the Falkirk end of the school, and register with your group leader when you arrive. Don't forget the suncream, it looks like it will be a scorcher! @GHSfalkirk @GHS_English

Our Blind Date with a Book was a sell out success at tonight’s Christmas Fair. So good to see our young people and their families excited about reading. Thanks to @FalkirkWtstones for their generous donation.

S2 had a great morning @surgeonshall attending a workshop based on our class novel 'Fleshmarket'. Pupils had the chance to handle old surgical tools, and were excited to finally see the Burke and Hare exhibit. The skin book was a gruesome highlight for all!

Junior Film club made its triumphant return today. First movie of the year... 'Ready Player One'. Big thanks to @intofilm_edu @intofilm_scot for the fabulous selection of films on the IntoFilm+ streaming service. Looking forward to watching so many of them already!

[Mrs Heggie @MrsH_GHS]

Love having the opportunity to work with people so passionate about using film in the classroom! Into Film have amazing resources, and are always finding new ways to support educators using film. If you haven't already, you should check them out!

[Into Film Scotland @intofilm_scot]

Next up in our #IntoFilmEduAmbs spotlight is Laura! Laura uses film in class as much as possible. Most recently she has been using Hidden Figures, Remember the Titans and The Hate U Give to explore black history and the Black Lives Matter movement. Thanks for all your hard work!

[Mrs Heggie @MrsH_GHS]

@_Miss_Marshall I love this so much, but I can't get anyone else to watch it. It's just such a nice, easy watch!

[Mrs Heggie @MrsH_GHS]

@_MrsMcCormick I'm definitely 1 after today's technology issues. It was so stressful! 😂🙈

[Mrs Heggie @MrsH_GHS]

Good luck to all getting their results tomorrow. After such a challenging year, I hope you are all proud of yourselves and that your results reflect all your hard work!

[Mrs Heggie @MrsH_GHS]

Have a lovely summer everyone. Can't wait to welcome you all back in August!
