We caught the #aurora last night over Strathclyde Country Park.
There's a chance people will be able to see it again tonight if the sky keeps clear.
Look out for the most amazing sight. @aurorawatchuk#auroraborealis

Another excellent poem by Arianna in 2T1. The classhave been learning about the 'Vile Victorians'.
Victorian Childhood by Arianna
Victorian kids worked all day
Small hands toiled no time for play
Lost childhood, harsh and grim
In factories, where their hopes grew slim.
Well done to all our S1 Holocaust ambassadors who met with the Provost today to discuss what they have been learning in Humanities. The pupils showcased some of their reflections around the theme of the 'Fragility of Freedom' to commemorate Holocaust Memorial day.
Thanks to former pupils Holly and Aidan for visiting the Humanities faculty today to discuss their experience as Holocaust ambassadors last year. πππ
No time to play, no time for dreams, their days filled with labour so it seems.
Machines withthick air & black smokeΒ their innocence lost, their spirit broke.
Their heart aches for a different fate, to escape from the working state.
A Victorian Poem by Naomi
In the factories of old, a Victorian child toils, their tiny hands and weary eyes, wrapped in heavycoils
From dusk til dawn their youth slips away, in the harsh world of work industry they are forced to stay.
2T1 have been learning about working conditions for children during the Victorian period in History. Here are some examples of the outstanding work they have produced! π
