School Day
The week is a little different at Academy. We split the day into "periods." This is similar to the different subjects your Primary Teacher would have on their daily timetable.
In Academy, you will have your own timetable depending on what class you are in. Each "period" will be a different subject. Unlike Primary, you will have to make your way to different classrooms. This can feel a little scary and you may be anxious at first. Do not worry, you're not alone. Everyone finds this tricky. The S1 team and Senior Pupils will help you find your way around the school so you do not feel lost.
School Lunches
Take a look at the fantastic menu you will have whilst at Lochside. This changes all the time.
