How I miss her …
Craigroyston Early Years Centre’s Makin’ A Brew group parents have been writing poetry – some as individual pieces of work and others creating poems in groups.
This beautiful unnamed poem was written by Yaa Agyepong:
Making soaps and body creams
Sewing dresses and braiding hair
Farming, cooking and cleaning
And painting the house too.
My grandmothers hands
The domestic goddess
Prized possession
Cooking, cleaning, painting
From my granny’s hands to mine
I’m just a chip off the old block.
How I miss her!

Roost Exhibition opens tomorrow
Roost is part of an artists residency, Arcadeum, linked to the North West Edinburgh Partnership Centre. This £12 million Centre, being built in Muirhouse, is a joint development between NHS Lothian and the City of Edinburgh Council, bringing increased health and social care services for the local community, including new GP accommodation and additional physiotherapy, podiatry, dentistry and child health services.
Arcadeum is based in the ‘satellite’ space in the shopping mall next to NEA. Artists Lindsay Perth and Hans Clausen have been leading the Arcadeum programme over the last 12 months.
