Search For SoundTown 5
Producers and researchers from our Radio Events team are on the road this week, making a final decision about our next SoundTown school. All will be revealed by the end of this month, but the school will be in either Perthshire, Dundee or Angus.
Meanwhile, our existing SoundTown school - Kelso High - is at the centre of plans for a big finale event which will coincide with the town's Civic Week in July.
If you're interested in the origin of this project, which involves building a radio studio within a school, then there are now on our associated You Tube site. The films were made with the staff and pupils of Doon Academy in Dalmellington, way back in 2003.
The films are now an interesting part of our archive and I'm guessing that most of the pupils featured in the video will have moved onto to bigger things, but it would be interesting to go back there and find out.
The films also feature guest appearances from the likes of Tam Cowan, Gary Robertson, Gavin Esler and the 麻豆官网首页入口 Scottish Symphony Orchestra.
Gavin, in particular, was very eloquent about the importance of the 麻豆官网首页入口 being involved with community projects, but I think his efforrts to chair a between two groups of pupils was as challenging as anything he's had to cope with on Newsnight.
