Excellent to see Shinty being promoted in the area. Thrumster Primary has just been awarded a grant from Windfarm benefit monies to buy all the equipment needed for the children to participate in Shinty. They have been having after school sessions for a while now and the kids thoroughly enjoy it. I hope a few more schools take this sport up.......we can have matches then.
