What is recorded here
Castlehill School stands at 354 Castlehill in Edinburgh, a nineteenth-century building shaped for the loud, restless work of teaching children. It is easy to imagine the hall filled with voices, chalk dust and the smell of wet wool, while adults believed they were giving young minds a sturdy frame. The school no longer needs to prove its worth because it already changed lives.
