The Prelim Examination Timetable, running from 25 November 2022 – 12 December 2022, is now available. If a Prelim Exam is in a classroom, pupils will be made aware of the exact classroom nearer the time, as in some cases the exam will not be in the usual classroom for that subject.
Pupils are asked to study this timetable carefully and highlight their exam times. If there are any clashes (there is a very small number for some pupils, where the combination of subjects is less common) please speak to the teacher concerned and they will support adaptations.
The SQA exam diet is scheduled to go ahead as normal this session. A planned diet of prelims for National 5/Higher/Advanced Higher will take place from Friday 25 November 2022 until Monday 12 December 2022 (inclusive).
The prelim timetable will be shared with pupils early on in November. Further advice and expectations can be found in the letter from our Head Teacher dated Friday 28 October 2022.
In preparation for the Diversity evening in February, pupils have been exploring the diversity within our school and local community.
Please see Diversity Introduction slides that have been shared during registration this week, with details of the first challenge to be completed during the October holidays.
As part of the Dunbar Music Festival, there will be a choice of workshops which pupils can sign up for on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 September. This is an exciting opportunity to learn something new, and the workshops will be led by professional musicians and experts from the music industry. All are free of charge, but it is advisable to book tickets as soon as possible as numbers are limited. All will take place in Dunbar. It would be great if parents/carers could encourage their young person to get involved.
Workshop 1: Off the Record: experts unpack the music industry.
Workshop 2: For singers and jazz fans, Eileen Hunter will teach different styles of singing and how to communicate with accompanying musicians.
Workshop 3: An introduction to fingerstyle guitar playing with award-winning guitarist and teacher Tony Cox.
Workshop 4: For adults and pupils over the age of 11, Dunbar Voices director Moira Morrison will lead an afternoon of harmony singing.
Further information and ticket booking can be seen Dunbar Music Festival website.
