Higher Graphic Communication pupils undertook our new project this year....Wall-E. Every aspect of this cute robot helps prepare the pupils to succeed in the assessment and 3D modelling Exam questions. Pupils constructed Wall-E using Autodesk Inventor and produced Engineering drawings of our favourite little space cleaning robot. Please visit our pupils showcase to see more of him!
New department display. Showcasing a little of what we do!
S3 took part in the ourcloud.buzz logo competition. Some of the designs have been wonderful. We particularly love this one. Well done Lucie. The eventual winner was one of our own, Amy McColl S3 Graphics. Well done Amy, amazing! Visit ourcloud.buzz to see her design in action.

For important course updates and additional study resources please visit our courses and essential reading and advice sections of this website. Here you will find links to new content and some really helpful hints and tips that might make the difference to your studies. As well as course advice we are very big on study techniques that are transferable and can help in that next step of Further Education or world of work. The Feynman technique is one of these...a really simple yet powerful tool. In its simplest form it wants to challenge your understanding of topics and questions. "If you can't explain it simply enough, you don't know it well enough". Pupils should strip down a challenging question and almost imagine they were explaining it to a toddler...this level of thinking will develop a deeper understanding of every topic that is properly learned. The Feynman Technique will be found in essential reading, as will many other helpful strategies used to excel."
Your smile is your logo, your personality is your business card, how you leave others feeling after having an experience is your trademark.
Can't help but be impressed by our Balamory display. S3 Graphics course developments taught using teamwork, patience and trust. Well done.
