Bo'ness Academy welcomed the Comenius Group to Scotland in May 2009. Meetings were interspersed with visits to many of the attractions which were included in the Tourist Guide produced by the Academy pupils.
The visitors were very impressed by the Hippodrome and by the enthusiasm of the pupils who acted as guides on the visit to Kinneil House and Linlithgow Palace
On the final day of the visit the group were invited to Callendar House, Falkirk to meet Provost, Pat Reid who presented them with some gifts. The day finished with a visit to the Falkirk Wheel
