2017/18 Dates updates
Update (08/02/2018):
An additional teaching week will be added on 16/06/2018 so the last term date is Saturday 16/06/2018. Then the school will start the summer holiday.
Update (08/02/2018):
February 3rd will be the last lesson based at our current location. Boroughmuir High School will then move to its new location but it will not be available to us until Easter. We’ve therefore made transitional arrangements to hold lessons at the normal times at St Thomas of Aquin’s High School starting from February 24th.
As we’re going to celebrate the Chinese New Year on the afternoon of March 10, all the classes on that morning are cancelled.
The following dates and location apply during the transition period:
Dates: Saturdays, 24 February, 3, 17, 24 March
Location: St Thomas of Aquin’s High School, 2-20 Chalmers St, Edinburgh EH3 9ES.
Update (03/12/2017):
16/12/2017 and 13/01/2018 are now added as term date.
