Well done, Brooke!
At the beginning of the year, South Ayrshire Council, in partnership with Police Scotland, reached out to all Campus Officers in Ayrshire to arrange pupils to design poster for the Safer Shores Campaign. Kilmarnock Academy submitted 7 posters. Out of all the entries, Brooke’s design was chosen as the winner. Her poster will be used throughout Ayrshire to promote ‘Safer Shores’ within Ayrshire. Well done, Brooke!
