We are opening our doors on Saturday 2 November for an Open Morning event designed to give prospective families an in-depth look into the Albyn School experience. From engaging classrooms and dynamic teaching to a vibrant co-curricular offering and state-of-the-art facilities, this event is an excellent opportunity to experience the community, values and education excellence that Albyn School offers.

Taking place on Saturday 2 November, from 9am, the event is open to families who are interested in admissions for Nursery, Primary and Secondary level, allowing attendees to tour facilities and engage with staff and current pupils. We are also home to the Aberdeen French School, which offers a hybrid curriculum, and you can find out more about Scotland’s only accredited French School.

The Open Morning gives visitors the opportunity to see the Combined Cadet Force in action and enjoy performances in drama, music and debating, allowing prospective families to experience first-hand the activities they could be involved in.

● Speak with current pupils

One of the best ways to learn about the school is through conversations with current pupils. Pupils will be on hand to share their personal experiences and highlights to date.

For parents of younger children, our Nursery facilities will be open for exploration and play. With its nurturing environment it is specifically designed to foster curiosity and a love for learning in our youngest pupils.
