Blair & Nadine, two of our S2 @ypi_scotland finalists were invited to @WeAreSTV studios yesterday to be interviewed about their YPI experience. They then had the opportunity to tour the studio & watch the 2pm news broadcast! #bxasuperstars #confidentindividuals @Excelerate_TWF

Insanely proud of all our finalists this year! It’s been a pleasure to work on this project and see our S2 pupil’s hard work being rewarded!

One of our @ypi_scotland teams created an animation about their chosen social issue (mental health) and charity #thevinery @aberdeenfoyer. We are blown away at this showcase of their creativity, digital skills and emotional intelligence! #buildingskills #projectbasedlearning

This week our S2's have came full circle, reflecting on their @ypi_scotland project "how can I make a difference to my community?" by sending out thank you letters to their chosen charities. What a beautiful example of how YPI impacts our young people❤️ #responsiblecitizens #pbl

Wishing our amazing YPI finalists the very best of luck for tonight's final. 🤞🤩

Super proud of Squad Gaga for getting our Growth Garden completed! It’s the happiest, most colourful display that promotes H&WB, personal development and being kind and will grow with my Squadlings as they move up the school! 🌻

[Mrs Simpson @mrssmsimpson]

The vision for our Squad Wall is finally coming together. It’s a work in progress but we only have leaves and our sunflower heads to put on and then our garden is complete. #SquadGaga #SquadChallenge
