Wonderful to see the pilot Walking Netball programme in Shotts become a sustainable weekly offer due to its popularity.
The class will now be included in @shottsGBT monthly membership or as a “pay as you go” option.
Great work from William and Aleks 👏🏻

A few weeks ago, we were visited by the team from @BBCScotLearn L.A.B for a special media workshop. 14 young people got the chance to film their very own video and learn about different roles such as directing, camerawork, sound, scriptwriting and even being on camera! (1/2)

Fantastic experience at our media workshop yesterday. @BBCScotLearn @JoJoGnome visited and we created a film about Shotts, it's history and what we enjoy doing around town. We can't wait to see the final video and will share it when it's ready! Thank you Jo, Danny and Josh 😊
