Headmaster's Welcome

Welcome to the 'Nippers'

As Head of the Junior School, I am delighted to have this opportunity to welcome you.

The Junior School, affectionately known as The Nippers, is a special place. It has always enjoyed the distinct advantages of being a small school conveniently located close to Edinburgh, Scotland's capital city. Here is a community where every individual matters, a school which offers the space and opportunity for everyone to find their own route to success - whether in academic achievement, sport, art, music, drama or other activities, wherever their talents and interests lie.

The School's size and campus enable pupils, aged 3 -12, to enjoy the freedom of their childhood within a safe and caring environment. Small classes allow all children the chance to discover and develop their talents, whilst receiving maximum individual attention. The School's busy hub is North Esk Lodge, whether they are day pupils, full or weekly boarders.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Philip Meadows

MA (Cantab), CertEd, Head of the Junior School
