The final @GrangemouthHS Poetry Club of the term has been a belter! These poets have gone from strength to strength, writing through hard times + always holding space for each other’s work. It’s been a privilege to spend time in their creative orbit 🥰#biscuitclub #youngwriters

A lovely session with S2 and storyteller Michael Kerins. It’s not often we take the time to stop and give our undivided attention to a story, so it was a treat to listen to Michael this morning. It’s great to have visitors again! @EnglishDeptGHS @yvaman21
