St George's students Sophia (L5) and Fatima (L5) have continued to flourish in their roles as Scotland's Young Makars. Following their selection for this prestigious position, both students have received mentorship from leading poets in the Scottish literary scene.

They recently had the opportunity to perform their original poetry at the renowned STANZA International Poetry Festival in St Andrews. This represents an extraordinary achievement for both students. During the festival, Sophia and Fatima had the privilege of meeting celebrated social media poet Len Pennie, known for her engaging work promoting Scots language and poetry across digital platforms.

Congratulations to Sophia and Fatima on this outstanding accomplishment!
