Day 3 | on Thursday night we attended the Menin Gate ceremony, where Hamish played to over 600 people, and Lennon & Darcy lay a wreath on behalf of Newbattle. We were all so proud of them!!

Day 3 | to end the day we then went to Railway Dugout cemetery - here Alessia lit our candle of remembrance, Connor read us a beautiful poem, and our final wreath was laid by Anna & Finlay. Hamish once again gave us an excellent performance to finish the week.

I think one of the problems with the current debate is that it suggests we need reasons and evidence to ban phones in schools when actually we need reasons and evidence to let them in.

The burden of proof is all the wrong way round.

A great geography AdH and Higher Source to Sea field study with the fun and hard working pupils from @NewbattleLT . A beautiful morning in the Pentlands—we even found what we think was slime mould.
