It was an honour to welcome HRH The Princess Royal to Gordonstoun today to officially open one of the ‘greenest’ classroom buildings in the UK, named ‘The Queen Elizabeth II Rooms’ with kind permission of former student, HM The King. #thereismoreinyou #boardingschool

With the return to school so soon upon us, please see below for a little on why #Gordonstoun’s location in the North of Scotland is perfect for delivery of the #charactereducation that originated here! #thereismoreinyou #boardingschool gordonstoun.org.uk/points-of-view…


As much as I love to cook, I’ve never baked much bread, so I was very pleased with my first attempt at making a #baguette or two this evening, even if it did result in an 11pm second dinner. #baking #frenchbread #frenchbaking #homemadebread
