Thatched hut on a rocky path, with towering mountains and a blue sky in the background. Grassy terrain surrounds the scene. It's a hauntingly beautiful view of Glencoe, Scotland.
This majestic landscape, the hills and the valleys, the rocks and the streams, holds on to its history and memory. And, it remembers the events of February 13, 1692...and so should all of us.

Here is our mountain themed video from last week again, focusing on #JacobiteHistory and the #GlencoeMassacre: youtu.be/yfhrSz3tTOg?...
Our new video is here, taking us into a particularly dark chapter in Scotland's history. Watch the video on the #GlencoeMassacre and use the worksheet to help your pupils write their own story set high in the mountains.

#OnThisDay 1692:
More than 30 members of the Scottish Highland clan MacDonald were murdered by government forces at the #GlencoeMassacre. They were killed for not pledging allegiance to the newly crowned King of Orange quickly enough. Those who killed them had lived with them for weeks.
Our Golden Retriever Angel-Guide, Sawyer (who has crossed over the Rainbow Bridge), stands majestically in Glencoe in the Scottish Highlands.
#TBT to our beloved Angel-Guide🌈, Sawyer, who loved roaming around #Glencoe and the #ScottishHighlands.
However, this beautiful place has some sad stories to tell. #OTD, marks the awful anniversary of the #GlencoeMassacre in 1692.
Today, we honour the memory of all victims of the massacre.🙏
