It is with deep sadness that we learned of Kal McMillan's death. Kal was a former S6 pupil and is remembered by many with great affection. Our thoughts are with his family and friends. Pupils requiring support should see their DHH.
As one era ends another begins! All the best to our retiring Headteacher Miss Carroll and congratulations and 'welcome' to our new Headteacher Mrs Rennie.
They've only gone and won it! Congratualtions to our S2 football team on their epic journey to Orkney and even more epic 3-0 win. Safe journeys and dreams of the next round.
While it's the start of the summer holidays it's also the end of an era. Mr Mcmenemy starts a well earned retiral after 33 years in Graeme High. Best wishes for the future from all staff and pupils.
This week we say farewell to Mr Ross Queenan who leaves his post as Depute to become the Headteacher of an Independent School. Everyone (especially Morrison staff, pupils and Personal Support team) wish him every success in the future.
Nice to see Sam and Nicola, Scotland and Rangers stars, (and ex-Graeme High) living the dream. Congratulations on all your successes, we know a wee bit about how hard you've worked to get there. All the best for the rest of the season.
Congratulations and best wishes to Shaun Brown and Kai Fotheringham who have graduated from
@PerformSchools
and signed their first professional contracts with
@dundeeunitedfc
Good luck for the season ahead.
It's been a bit of a wait, but it's been worth it. Introducing our Headteacher Mrs Kristy Rennie and our amazing new school captains - Megan, April, Chloe, Andrew, Rebecca and Alex
Top performance from our stars this evening! Amazing talent on display, great songs, dancing and acting. It's a wonderful showcase of our talented school community 🌟🌟🌟
Got to say goodbye to a special bunch of people today at our S6 Leavers breakfast. Class of 2022 leaves with a Graeme High tartan scarf as well as our best wishes for the future. 👍
As the most unusual school term we've ever experienced ends we'd like to thank our pupils, parents and staff for the hard work, patience, good humour and engagement they have shown. Hope you all have a safe and relaxing holiday. See you in August 🤞
Brilliant start by our new S1 pupils. They looked great in their new uniforms and quickly settled into following our procedures. Well done to all our pupils this week and remember to be prepared for Monday when we're altogether for the first time.
Huge congratulations to Jabin Ravikrishnan who overcame skilled opposition to win the Junior Young Speakers Scotland Competition. Jabin now has the opportunity to attend the international competition in London. 🌟🏆
Well done to all our staff, pupils, parents and partners for making our first Access All Areas event such a success. Not even the weather could dampen the energy, variety and engagement.
Happy weekend everyone! From Monday we are focussing on 3 key areas that will help to promote a positive ethos in our school community. We're looking forward to seeing our young people demonstrate the high standards they have for themselves.
Tomorrow we welcome our final pupil group into school. It's been a long time coming and it's here at last. We are incredibly excited to meet our new S1 in the real world for the first time! See you tomorrow!!
We'd like to welcome all our new followers especially our new S1 and their families. Can't wait until we can all be in school. Until then stay tuned to Teams for our virtual transition activities. Have a great weekend 👍

We are a bit late to the party with this but congratulations to Thomas Kay and Calum Watson for winning the league and Scottish Youth Cup with Kerse United U14s. Thomas also produced a man of the match performance in the final. 👏🌟🌟

To quote the queen of Christmas herself, "it's tiiiiiiiiiiiime!"... Turkey time to be more precise 😀 Our wonderful helpers have been hard at work to prepare our hall for today's Christmas lunch and it's looking fabulous 🎄The fire and festive tunes are on so let's dig in! 🙌⭐️
Our lovely ladies from the English department encouraging us all to never judge a book by it's cover. I absolutely love this idea for a Christmas surprise!
