We have a brilliant story to share: @stninianshs is now a @scottishbktrust Gold Accredited Reading School! We've loved working more with our wider school community to build on our culture of reading for pleasure, and have more exciting plans for the coming year... #ReadingSchools

Our S1s did us proud at @neilslorance's comics workshop, drawing personal comics after Neil shared some amazing advice. Thanks @scottishbooktrust for the #LiveLiterature funding, and to Neil - not only for a fantastic afternoon but for this great print of #Spock! #ReadingSchools

Our S1s were full of praise for our visiting author Elizabeth Wein: "I liked her stories because I could picture them in my head." "The visit got to your heart, and helps you understand the backstory and what happened to people." #ReadingSchools #HolocaustMemorialDay
We were delighted that author Elizabeth Wein could join us today to speak to our entire S1. She explained why she writes about the Holocaust in her novels. Elizabeth then got S1 to complete their own creative writing task to commemorate Holocaust Memorial. Thank you again! ๐ฏ

It's #GreenLibrariesWeek and #EDCSecondarySchoolLibraries are showcasing the wonderful ways we offer a green and climate-conscious service. This brilliant bookmark was created by the (now retired) librarian @LenzieSchLib as a clever way to use up scraps of wool!
