Last night a group of S6 visited The Elms Care Home. Several S6 pupils volunteer at the home. We sang carols for the residents and had non-alcoholic mulled wine and mince pies. A lovely evening was had by all and our thanks to The Elms for hosting us.
Heriot’s Sixth Year operates differently to other schools. We emphasise greater autonomy and independent learning to prepare our leavers for life after Heriot’s. We see this final year as a bridge to what lies beyond, which for most of our pupils means university.
