Sports

"One final thought.  Daniel Stewart's College placed emphasis on sports at Inverleith and elsewhere.

My moment of glory arrived when the Relay Race (Under 12) was run in 1945.  I belonged to the Drumsheugh House and won this medal:

Combined Cadet Force

"I was watching a BBC movie on iPlayer today and was reminded of something we learned while in the Combined Cadet Force at Daniel Stewart's College.

One of the elderly masters (Mr Davie Grant) produced some photographic prints -  World War I views from above, which were projected onto a screen. They showed the German barbed wire entanglements.  These showed up as shadows on the photos."
