The students returned not only with trophies , medals and titles but also with strengthened friendships and a renewed sense of pride in their school and our Scottish traditions . Music teachers are privileged to work one-on-one with students , and opportunities
such as this trip allow teachers to support the ‘ whole ’ boy . These experiences remind the boys that they have a team of teachers at Scotch to support and encourage their individual journey .
This exceptional adventure was only possible due to the enthusiasm of the parents and families and the dedication of the Pipes and Drums teaching team , and would not have been possible without the trust and support of Scotch ’ s leadership . The encouragement of the whole school community has supported our students to experience a level of achievement and growth that will inspire them for years to come , solidifying Scotch ’ s place on the world stage in the piping and drumming community .
