OH MY. What the - how long has this been here? Yes, yes, but has it always been here that long, or…read morewas it maybe once not here and then as soon as it was here it had been here that long? Magic, sort of thing? It feels like that kind of place. On an old and busy street, a tiny archway it's easy to miss and go straight past (I did - twice). A tunnel opening out into a beautiful, quiet, sunny courtyard. A magical staircase stuck halfway up a wall. A building full of interconnecting rooms. The idea that this has been here this whole time and I haven't known about it and deliberately sought out opportunities to visit absolutely everything they have going on leaves me, frankly, aghast. That is all.

There could be a better sense of community facilitated by the staff, but I think things are generally pretty good and improving compared to the last reviewer's remarks.

I'd heard of Moray House School of Education way before I ever approached it: through people I knew…read morewho studied there or had offices there; and through the Edinburgh University Library's catalogue that kept trying to send me there to pick up books (which is just unnecessarily out of the way, really). So, the Moray House School of Education is, duh, the School of Education. It's located right next to Paterson's Land and the building where the Bongo Club, aka between Holyrood and Canongate.

It's so amazing, and pretty, and people are friendly, and they have all these cool events advertised (like a cheese party!!!).

Home to some of the ugliest buildings on earth (can I get a round of applause for Appleton Tower's…read moresheer foulness please?) the University of Edinburgh was the place of my 'further education'. Superficially the Uni does well in the league tables (23rd in the world I think) but the real student experience is pretty patchy. The main library is probably the best example of this. Spanning over six floors this building houses millions of books and resources but for some reason there never seemed to be any of the ones I wanted! At the beginning of every year at least one of my courses was complaining that their books hadn't been put on short loan and that keen students had already checked out the course work for the year. There was also a constant issue of people hogging computers, leaving their books and coats on the table and then heading off to Bristo Square for a leisurely lunch. Annoying! Nonetheless I did enjoy my studies at Edinburgh a lot. The uni attracts some brilliant lecturers especially in the History and Politics departments (my degree). Dr Day, Dr Cogliano and Dr Bates were my favourite historians although I would have to say that the international relations and politics of human rights courses were very impressive. In recent years the University has come out quite badly in 'student satisfaction' surveys primarily because of the time it took to get coursework marked and returned. As I left I could see that there were real efforts being made to reverse these patterns but as far as most of us were concerned it was a bit too little too late. Despite this I would still say that Edinburgh is a great University and I miss it a lot!

Carnegie College is located at the outskirts of Dunfermline and offers an extensive range of…read morefurther and higher education as well as short courses. This is a large College with good facilities including a refectory for students and a large car park. There's a diverse choice of courses from computing to childcare, from engineering to gas courses, from photography to business, to the new beauty therapy courses. The staff are friendly and approachable and there's an option for everyone no matter what your circumstances. There's also campuses at Cowdenbeath (construction courses) and at Rosyth (engineering courses). Carnegie College was formerly known as Lauder College.

It's such an outstanding building, you can stand on Queensferry road and look down for about half a mile and see it at the end of the longest drive in the world. It's imposing and a real big part of history and the style of architecture would make any art student weep.

The entrance to the exhibition is located of Westport Street and the illustrated gallery can be found on the 4th floor in a very modern building just opposite from Edinburgh castle with very amazing views. One of the students is no other than our own Ollie from "Wings", who is a very talented young man bringing his fantasies to life, presented in a combination of colourful fiction and science. You need a certain class of talent to draw various human and other forms with such a detailed eye, otherwise what you paint is missing shape and essence. He uses bright and eccentric colours indicating fun and play, and his arty signature is a little dog called "Wings" (well, we might hope so ;-) ) You can also admire his art work in the Princess Mall shopping centre at Waverly Station. There his talent and illustrative work is displayed on a massive wall for everybody to see when passing by. It's literally a very large print with many little characters in it, all waiting in a queue to get into the Mall for a bit of shopping. Remember to look out for it next time you are there. Tomorrow is the last day of the Art Degree Exhibition, so you better hurry. There is a lot to see!

ECA is a bit like other Edinburgh University buildings in that during the school year, students are…read moretortured (and by tortured I mean taught and by taught I mean made to sit exams) there, while during the Fringe, it becomes a venue. The Edinburgh College of Art, surprise surprise, offers art courses. I've met a few photography students from there (all amazing photographers), and their fashion students are, I think, in some way, affiliated with Godiva in the Grassmarket. Every year, the students will take over the many many buildings with a week (or so) long degree exhibition. This exhibition is massive. All the different students have their own sections, so there's the photography part, the fashion part, textiles, animation, etc. It borders on impossible to do it in a day. During the festival, I saw a great show where people in amazing make-up danced and did acro on stilts. It was jaw-dropping. Also, the building itself is pretty amazing. I mean, I'm not a fan of the outside, but then inside is full of columns and huge open spaces. If you haven't made the degree show ever, keep it in mind for next year. And keep your ears open for news on fringe shows going on in the college.

The Castle Creche is a small building situated outside the Gyle Shopping Centre. It is an ideal…read moreplace to leave your child to play while you do the shopping. It's for children over 2 year old and on your first visit you will have to register, bringing the childs birth certificate to prove that they are of the relevant age. It is a drop in chreche between Mondays and Saturdays from 9.30 until 5.45 pm and on a Sunday it is open between 11 and 5 and it is a case of checking whether they have spaces or not. Children take their shoes off when they enter and the automatic door can only be opened from the inside where it is high up outwith a childs reach. Only parents or staff may enter. Whoever drops the child off must collect them to ensure that they are not being taken off by the wrong person. All the staff are well trained and the equipment for the children are full of variety. There is a large built in climbing centre with a ball pit at the bottom and a slide for getting out. Most children play in there though it can get a bit rough for the smaller children. There are also several nursery toys, from role playing, to ride ons, with gluing tables and also a video corner, though I do find, when I put my son in the creche he ends up in the video corner. The prices are fantastic and you are initially charged for 30 mins and then it will increase for every 15 minutes, a parent is not allowed to leave the Gyle Shopping centre when their child is in the creche incase something happens. The Creche can also be hired out for birthday parties. I believe it is around £50 for 90 minutes. The cost includes, use of play equipment, one member of staff to assist and plates and cups. You provide the food, or order food from one of the establishments in the food court. You can also use their kitchen to prepare your food. All in All, if you want some time shopping, kid free, drop them into the creche and have the peace you so rightfully deserve!
