Most people have watched a spy film, but have you ever met a ‘real world’ Secret Agent? Well if you come into Knox Academy this week you will no doubt be fascinated by the work that our new S2’s will be doing.
I’m hoping to give a daily update of the work that is happening throughout the week and hopefully include a few photos. Instead of giving away today’s secrets, here is how we introduced ‘Spy Week’ at an Assembly.
Look out for tomorrows update!

A group of our pupils have taken on the huge challenge of researching and writing a report on 'The Importance of Engineering to Scotland'. We have had the pleasure of welcoming various Engineers into school to talk about their work and we recently visited the UK ATC.

We'd like to thank Dr Hermine Schnetler for organising the visit and for being so enthusiastic to help us in our research....

Huge Thanks go to PC Lynn Black and her colleagues for taking the time to show us.
