It is music that helps many young people feel heard, feel included, feel valued, feel connected, feel happy, feel safe, feel successful, feel comfortable, and feel like they can be themselves. It is music that does this. That’s why it needs to be at the heart of every school.
Go Ella!
HAPPY 15th DECEMBER! 🎄 Here is our next Christmas video, ‘Valerie’ performed by Ella in S6 - you can see the full video by clicking the link below. 🎅🎤🎶 #proudtobeross @rosshigh

Why is making music such an effective method for young people to express themselves?
In our latest report we interviewed young musicians to find out more about the links between songwriting and well-being, and what we can learn from this. #Thread

Lovely nuthatch visiting the garden today. @rosshigh @RossHighGDM do you recognise the feeder?
Thank you so much to @VolunteerEL for their fabulous event on Thursday eve. Humbled to have been nominated and delighted for all the winners and nominees. Thought I'd share our Christmas charity song again as there was a lot of love on that zoom!

Such a lovely bunch of pupils #ymiscotland
The sun was shining for our Music session this afternoon with @MYMusicians. We loved exploring different rhythm patterns with our musical shakers. 😁🌞🎼 @ELCArtsService @CockenziePS #successful #positive
Never underestimate the power of devoted teachers and determined learners 🙌
So nice to hear news that pupils have uni offers in the midst of this crazy time. Today was our AH Classics pupil who has an unconditional to study Classics at St Andrews! Love that we can offer a subject not typically taught in Scottish comprehensives! @mgsonline
Another sunny rhythm and rhyme session in Cockenzie today. Lovely to see the colourful "classmade" claves and shakers. @ELCArtsService @CreativeScots

@scotgov Please, please could you update the guidance on non-professionals meeting for organised performing arts? Not updated since Jan and showing no meeting, even outdoors unless in level 1 or 0, and then subject to strict rules only allowing it to go ahead if ....
breathing over and banging into each other during team sports? Singing and the arts are being demonised, and the fact there have been no updates on this guideline since Jan just demonstrates how little importance is placed on something so crucial for mental wellbeing.......
