Professor Bryan Turner FMedSci FRS welcomes SNORE Pupils to ‘The UK Research Community’

What a performance by our pupil researchers at The Royal Society Student Conference in London last week!

Iain Williams (S5), Nida Afreen Patel (S5), Shreya Navaratna (S5), Jaiden John (S5), Reych Reyes (S4) and Fredrick Mekabe-Mpi (S4) presented their sleep research to peers and academics in a whole-day event, and as the organisers remarked, ‘Tynecastle High School has once again, hit the ball out of the park’.

Fantastic work, amazing presentation with mature and reflective engagement with Royal Society Fellows and academics.  The school glows with pride!

Watch this space as we embark on Snore II with a fresh team of young researchers!

School Library Events March 2024

During March, we’ll vote for new history books to add to the library collection, ESOL classes will attend creative arts workshops to broaden our cultural experiences within our community, and the lunchtime reading club will shadow this year’s Carnegie Book Awards. Winners of the Book Lucky Dip will be revealed and all students will receive a digital book token to celebrate World Book Day. 

Snore Pupil Research Achieves First Publication

The research of our fantastic Snore Team is now officially published in The Royal Society Student Conference Programme. Six members of the Team will appear in person at the Student Conference next week to present their work to The Royal Society on Wednesday 7th March 2024 (Iain Williams, Nida Afreen Patel, Shreya Navaratna, Jaiden John, Fredrick Mekabe-Mpi, Reych Reyes).

What an achievement! We are very proud of all 17 members of the Snore Team. Do please wish them all the very best!
