Embedding young folk in the area they're growing up in - local places, local songs & yellow wellies to boot 💪 Some Gairloch High School S1s with their impromptu singing of Loch Maree Islands today 🎶 think we've got PEAT & DIESEL to thank for helping us keep that classic alive!



Great rural careers event with our S1/2 run by DYWWestHighland and partners in Ullapool High School today before a session back in Gairloch introducing metaskills to pupils in a fun and interactive way. Absolutely shattered now 😂 but worth it to see our pupils engaging! #dyw
