Last night we gathered together to celebrate the annual MAPE Graduation Ball. It was great to see the year group together and to share stories and memories of the last four years. Our Peer Support Committee #EdBudds organised a lovely evening for both students and staff.

Very proud to see Long graduate yesterday, and to have such a great seat😉, as he graduated from my school at the University of Edinburgh. Really pleased to have both birth and foster families together for the big day #FosterFamilies

On the run-up to the school's graduation on Friday, I thought I'd share another memory from my dad's time at the school in the 1940s and 50s. The Moray House school song (Sorry, he can't remember the tune) was penned by the Head Teacher, Mr Mowat, and sung at School gatherings.

Looking forward to this. A day spending time with like minded people on Peer Support and Learning. The conference has speakers from universities across the UK, Europe and as far flung as Canada.

The Year 3 MAPE EdBudds Committee brought a long-lost annual event back to life on Monday night. The MAPE Talent Competition. 'Acts' from across years 1 to 3 sang/danced their hearts out for a great cause. This year's events are raising funds for Charlie Boys Cancer Foundation
