It didn’t just happen…

You may be thinking it’s too early for Burns… BUT The Scottish Enlightenment did not just happen… inspiring people made it happen.

Specialist Group A made this ‘larger than life’ portrait of Robbie Burns in Art with Mrs Prentice on Friday. We’ll learn a little more about how Robbie contributed to The Scottish Enlightenment next week.

Another one of those people was Adam Smith- an economist who used the philosophy of morality to make the big bucks. We found out today that he improved the standards for his workers, to improve the quality of their work. We’ll find out a bit more next week by what Adam Smith meant when he said: ‘To feel much for others, and little for ourselves.’

See you all tomorrow,
Mr.Cook, Mrs.MacLeod and Mrs.Prentice
