We are so proud of our pupils for stepping out of their comfort zones — it’s not easy, but that’s where growth happens 😃 Spotting a Lighthouse too is amazing 🥾 🌊 🐚

Lovely day with Outdoor Education on a coastal walk in South Queensferry. We explored the area, asked lots of questions, took a mindful moment listening to the waves. We managed to walk 5K.
@ghslighthouse.bsky.social we even spotted a lighthouse.
