ARTS, CRAFTS AND HOBBIES

A display of work done by the boys during the year, or exhibits relating to popular hobbies, is arranged in the "Playhall" on the South Edge of the Parade Ground. All guests are cordially invited to visit this exhibition, before or after the Parade. There is a separate display in the School Model Railway and Modelling Hobbies Hut, to which any QVS boy will direct guests. Guests are also invited to view the Pipe Room and Drum Room, behind the main row of seats. In these rooms are pictures and badges which have been presented to the School by the three Fighting Services, including every Regiment and Corps normally represented by sons at the School. Also presentations from neighbouring British Legion (Scotland) Branches, the former South African War Veterans Association of Edinburgh, and principal or neighbouring cities and towns of Scotland.

Some visitors may also care to view the School Chapel in which a recently presented stained glass window, commemorating the fifty years of RAEC involvement in the School, may be seen.
