Braes Drama Department

There are lots of supports available to reduce costs in our school and in schools across Scotland. Help us make sure every pupil has what they need to succeed in school and beyond! @cpagscotland.bsky.social @povertyalliance.org

Our @braeshighschool.bsky.social COSD pupils head to @scotparl.bsky.social tomorrow to support the calls made by thousands of young people in our School Shouldn’t Cost manifesto for all parties running in the Scottish elections to make education cost free. ➡️ redirme.com/dzbpg5 #SchoolShouldntCost

Fantastic afternoon for more than 60 @braeshighschool.bsky.social pupils at the open dress rehearsal of Matilda as part of the RCS creative writing challenge. Brilliant way to make theatre accessible and to allow a sneak peak behind the scenes as to how things work! We’re inspired!

Staff and pupils @braeshighschool.bsky.social are in our seats and ready to go for Matilda the Musical!

Interdisciplinary trip next time? 😬

Georgia and Carrie answered any and all questions, told us some tricks of the trade and made us feel incredibly welcome. What a team Prima Facie has. Thank you for the opportunity to see ‘behind the curtain’. Break a leg for the rest of the tour. ☺️

What an afternoon @lyceumedinburgh.bsky.social seeing the outstanding Jodi Comer live. A powerful performance on screen but even more stunning in person on stage. Huge thank you to Stage Manager Georgia and Carrie for giving our @braeshighschool.bsky.social pupils a backstage tour.

3 lucky members of Team Drama @braeshighschool.bsky.social attending @lyceumedinburgh.bsky.social for Prima Facie today. These people were selected for their hard work this year or were nominated by their classmates as deserving of the opportunity. 🙌 Only 10 minutes to curtain up! 🤩

Huge well done to our pupils who took part in today’s Q&A offering interesting and insightful questions. #DreamTeam
