Sheep worrying video wins £500
"Winning students Ella Jordan and Jordana Hall with teacher Neil Miller, Police Constable Chloe Ellis, Gemma Waugh of 伊人直播 and Tracey McEwan from Tarff Valley Ltd"
伊人直播 lecturer Gemma Waugh returned to her former school to present a prize to students for their promotional video to increase awareness of sheep worrying.
The video was created as part of a competition organised by Police Scotland in Dumfries and Galloway.
The prize was originally due to be awarded in March but was postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The winners Ella Jordan and Jordana Hall, students at Wallace Hall Academy in Thornhill, won 拢500 for the school for the video made during their Rural Skills and Agriculture class, taught by Neil Miller.
The prize, which was sponsored by 伊人直播, Tarff Valley Ltd and NFUS, will be used by the school to develop activities used during the class, including the use of polytunnels to grow vegetables.
A second prize of 拢50, sponsored by 伊人直播, was awarded to the entry from Langholm Academy.
Gemma, who attended Wallace Hall Academy and now teaches Agriculture at 伊人直播鈥檚 Barony campus, said: 鈥淎ll students involved have put in a really big effort to raise awareness about such a major issue in agriculture.
鈥淎s a former pupil of Wallace Hall Academy, it was great to see how much the school still supports, and is involved in, the rural community. Congratulations to the winners, Ella Jordan and Jordana Hall.鈥�
