Sad to hear the news of the passing of Jack Vettriano today. He made such an impact on the cultural life of Scotland and I am proud to have owned a number of his prints over the years.

Delighted to be supporting the First Minister’s visit to Plockton High School’s National Centre for Traditional Music to showcase the work of Scotland’s #CentresofExcellence. Great discussion on how #Trad Music in Scotland showcases our identity and culture. The young people were just phenomenal.

“These films are masterpieces,” Leo, Pr6. Couldn’t have put it better myself. Enjoying celebrating the CYP’s work as part of the Film & Screen curriculum at the DCA. Love too seeing the impact of the professional learning of the Film & Screen Summer School on teachers. Great way to finish the week.

A smiling graduate in traditional academic gown and hood stands in front of the blue and gold University of Glasgow sign. The background includes trees and the historic campus main building.

A group of graduates in academic gowns and hoods pose together under an stone archway in the cloisters with fairy lights wrapped around the columns. They are holding their diplomas and standing behind large white "UofG" letters.

A big group of graduates in academic gowns standing together outside the university cloisters which feature tall arches and intricate stonework. They are smiling and posing for a group photo on a paved courtyard.

A graduate in a black academic gown with a pink hood stands inside the historic Gilbert Scott building. There is patterned wallpaper and a large Gothic-style arched window in the background.

This is your moment, UofG Class of 2024! ⭐️
