It’s back to school tomorrow! And some of our students are going to be collecting Dynamic Youth Awards for improving Kelso Skatepark Project and learning new scooter 🛴 techniques!

This award by Youth Scotland helps young people to set their own targets, learn new skills and change their communities.
