A group of S3 pupils were selected to attend a talent ID day for Scottish Athletics. The event was called ‘Playground to Podium’ and was a chance for Scottish Athletics to draw in talent from other sporting areas. The pupils selected were Finn Sutherland, Kailin Brannigan, Callum Beattie, Jakub Proctor, Hannah Robb, Kate Fraser and Georgia Ferrie. The athletes were involved in running, throwing and jumping and all performed exceptionally well winning many of the group stations. The next stage in this process involves inviting back the top athletes to work with specialist coaches.
