At Dunottar we enable our pupils to achieve spectacular outcomes by encouraging them to exhibit the seven behaviours of 'warrior learners'; aspiration, creativity, tenacity, independence, curiosity, collaboration and inclusivity, preparing them for the fast paced and ever changing world we live in.
Founded in 1926, Dunottar School is an independent day school for girls and boys aged 11 to 18. Dunottar is a school with high standards and a warm heart, providing an excellent, all-round education. Through excellent teaching and outstanding pastoral care, we bring out the best in every pupil, enabling them to be the very best they can be. In our vibrant, welcoming community, where everyone is known and valued, pupils are challenged and supported to achieve more than they believe possible.
Pupils flourish in this nurturing environment and challenge themselves to be the best they can be.

This year's Lower School play was in the format of ‘Dunottar’s Got Talent’. Following the variety show formula, we were treated to acts of all shapes and sizes. Described by several members of the audience as "forty-five minutes of pure joy", the acts ranged from dancing dinosaurs to flitting fairies, comedy sketches to spoofs and satire.
We had a fabulous performance from the band ‘Rush Hour’ (Brontae, Florence and Henry B) who were a real highlight and a number of other impressive moments of great musicianship from Barney on the drums, Isla and Henry on the piano and Billy on guitar. We could not have been prouder of the pupils taking part who dealt with the heat like professionals and supported each other commendably.
Thank you to the Art and IT departments for donating their air con to the backstage, without which we would have melted away. Congratulations to Mrs Clark for another fantastic lower school event and to Teddy and Rose for the initial proposal and for being amazing comperes.
