Success of Liberal/Labour for Higher Historians revision 📚

S1 threw a party for Miss McGinley leaving today 🎉🥲 you will be so missed!

National 5 History were playing revision board games today, looking over all 3 topics ahead of their exam! 🎲 Really good engagement from all young people! ⭐️ @braeshighschool.bsky.social @humanitiesbhs.bsky.social

S4 Modern Studies played revision board games in class today! 🎲📚 A great (and competitive!) way to revise key topics while having some fun. Amazing effort from everyone! 💪

One of our young carers, Frazer, has shared his story to raise awareness of Young Carer’s Action Day. Watch his video to see what supports have helped Frazer as a young carer throughout school and aspire to work with young people in the future! @braeshighschool.bsky.social #RRSA #Article29

Continuing our “Fun Revision Week”, N5 Modern Studies pupils will be testing their knowledge with revision board games 🎲 Each square has a question – if they can’t answer it, they must take on a wild card challenge! A fun and competitive way to revise key topics.

For our Fun Revision Week, our S4 Modern Studies class had a fantastic visit from PC Findlay 👮‍♂️ We spoke in detail about the powers and role of the police, and it was a brilliant opportunity for pupils to hear first-hand about policing and ask questions about the job. Thank you PC Findlay 🚔🚨👮‍♂️

Amazing work from s2 geographers. We have just completed our final projects for our earth forces topic 🌋🌍

Our S1 and S3 worked together on this years Holocaust Memorial Day theme of bridging generations. They created a display to remember the individuals who were killed and survived. @mrniven.bsky.social @braeshighschool.bsky.social

Some of us made Chinese dragons today in our play! How cool...

S2 Social Subjects have been learning about earthquakes and how buildings are designed to withstand them. Today they put this into practice, creating structures using only paper and tape to survive a shake test! Thanks to AJ for judging 🧐 Well done to our winners, photographed below! 👇

Instead of a package holiday you can trust, we looked at revision techniques you can trust! Today in National 5 Modern Studies, we all picked a different question on a paper airplane, threw them and picked up a different one. The young people then wrote a PEE chain based of a random exam question. ✈️

Today we remembered those who were killed in the Holocaust. Our S3s have spent the week learning about and from the Holocaust. All S3 classes used Yad Vashem’s name database to research those killed in the Genocide. #HolocaustMemorialDay #RRSA #Article2 @humanitiesbhs.bsky.social

S1 played ‘MP for a day’ as part of our democracy unit today. A fantastic resource ✅

We have just finished our s1 topic on Witchcraft. The young people were asked to create something based on our topic & told they could be as creative as they wish. We have had a witches house, hats & amazing story boards & comic strips created. Well done 🧙 (& a big thank you to our Braes Brains!)

It’s now movie time! We have decided on the Nativity! 🎄

Another busy supported study session in the history modern studies faculty tonight! 17 young people in attendance 🫡

Today National 5 Historians were looking at casualties and deaths in the Great War. Each pupil got a letter with as close to their names as possible to then research on the Commonwealth War Graves website. This helped them see that the statistics were real people & families lost in the war 📚

Super busy supported study in the Humanities faculty - well done guys 🥳 Room 326 - Wednesday & Thursday

I have the best pupils in the world! Walked into my classroom after lunch and they had decorated for my birthday and baked me a cake - what a lovely group of humans - thank you 🥲🥳🥰

A huge congratulations to our S2 pupils who made their own models of the Titanic. All pupils were very creative and they were even able to float in the school swimming pool! Keep it up S2🎨📚 @braeshighschool.bsky.social @humanitiesbhs.bsky.social

Team Humanities 🥰🥲🤍

Our amazing helpers this evening 😋 we appreciate all your help to showcase how amazing you all are within our faculty! 🥰

SO much fun in Nat 5 Modern Studies today playing ‘Modern Studies Madness’ with our new buzzers 🎉👏 Huge well done to Team 2, the Raspberries, for scoring a massive 153 points! Thanks to Mr Niven for stepping in as scorekeeper as maths is certainly not my strongest point 🤣 #ModernStudies #Teamwork
