We are going to really miss our Class of 2025 more than words can say. They have been an absolutely brilliant team of young people β leading and shaping our learning community in so many ways.
When you still have to unpack from a two week camp and have Doctoral work to catch up with and have a garden to get back in order but decide to get a puppy instead... Meet SPOOK!
We are super excited to finally be able to announce that our school show 2024 will be... ANNIE! Over 75 pupils attended the reveal & audition workshop last night, & we cannot wait to cast our show after auditions next week!
It's an exciting day for Banff tomorrow as we undergo our first Assesment Centre. Really looking forward to facilitating the event to select our pupil leadership team for 24/25.
We are looking forward to our Pupil Leadership Team Assessment Centre which takes place all day tomorrow - Wednesday 13 June. We wish our students the best of luck for this stage of the selection process. #SLP
Change of timetable marked the launch of S3 Pathfinder for our new cohort of pupils! Mr Mochan had the pleasure of reminding us of the "why". Looking forward to seeing how the journey unfolds this year π£οΈ
WOW! We had a huge turn out for our S1 Project Based Learning Showcase! Our S1's expertly showcased their beautiful work from the four projects this year from their Doorstep Explorer's website, Make a Stand Ted Talks, Survive or Thrive Nature Books & their Dark Side of Chocolate.

Not quite the restful holidays (yet) but channelling "me time" in the correct way. 2 solo days in London with some family time today before flying home tomorrow!
Great visit to @RobertGordonUni with S2 pupils to visit various schools within the uni. What a beautiful campus π
I'd be lying if it didn't make me consider going back to study!
Today's S1 PBL class was an adventure outdoors, recording nature-inspired soundscapes ππ§. Our students became audio explorers, capturing the symphony of the natural world. @BxaLearning#NatureSounds#PBL#OutdoorClassroom"

New Year = wardrobe clear out!
It's hard to believe this was after 4 bags of clothes were hauled out.
2024 is the year of building a capsule wardrobe ππ§₯
*Full disclosure - this was a good distraction.
