Fantastic start to the week yesterday @Linlithgow_Acad #YPI showcase. 4 teams gave passionate, creative pitches with strong business cases, making it a tough choice for the judges who deliberated hard before agreeing on the winner! Congratulations to everyone involved.

Say hello to another Penguin vending machine 👋
Secondary-school students at Linlithgow Academy now have access to over 70 different titles from our #LitinColour reading lists, via their new vending machine!
Linlithgow Academy was picked from over 800 applications from schools across the UK, and it's hoped the vending machine will contribute to the school’s love of reading by making books more accessible and diversifying the range of titles available 📚✨
The machine is free to use and will be managed by teachers via a token system. With iconic titles from authors like Salman Rushdie, Toni Morrison, and Arundhati Roy, it will help students discover more brilliant books by authors of colour 🧡
Take a look at the #LitinColour reading lists >> lnkd.in/eQ8q-vjQ

Mud kitchens, using sustainable materials, have been made by some of our young people and donated to a local nursery. The young people have worked incredibly hard on them and they are delighted with how they turned out. They hope the nursery children will love using them!

We had a very enjoyable & emotional S6 Farewell Assembly this morning, made even more special with 220 parents/carers also attending to see their child in school for the last time! Lots of photos will be shared incl. more from the drone which captured our S6 in a '24' formation!

What an amazing achievement for one of our S6 pupils who has been offered & accepted a place @Harvard
What better way for him to celebrate his fantastic news than with a Munro climb today in what looks like not the best conditions! We are very proud of him!

Resource to help GCSE pupils to develop their analysis. Can be glued into books or used as a poster! I find that considering the ‘depth’ of layers helps my pupils to think about a quotation in detail rather than making a superficial comment and then moving on. Download link👇
