Our Year One Scholars students have had the opportunity to visit Edinburgh University, learning all about life as a university student. Students visit Edinburgh University to get firsthand experience of university life.
Our students also enjoyed a tour of the beautiful campus and were able to discuss studying at the university with current undergraduate students. Students visit Edinburgh University and gain great insights into life as a student. The trip also included a climb to the top of Edinburgh Castle. There, a ‘Ghosts and Gore tour’ of the old city took place. Later, they had the chance to explore everything Edinburgh has to offer. The National Museum of Scotland was a must, alongside finding the little Greyfriars Bobby statue!
