Wellness weeks introduce students to new activities and sports and are a great opportunity to bring curling out into the community. Edinburgh Curling School coach Graeme Maguire ran sessions in one secondary and three primary schools. Each session started with a short 2-minute film covering the basics of the sport. After chatting with students and showing a few photos of local curlers in action, the kids headed to the mats. It’s fair to say they caught on very quickly and showed fantastic enthusiasm. Many of the sessions ran all day, with groups of 6-10 students trying out the sport for 20-minute blocks. Of course, the ice was melted, but luckily the New Age Kurling Kits work brilliantly on gym floors. They’re an invaluable way to bring the game to the students in the off-season. The feedback’s been extremely positive, as teacher Sue Russell of Canal View Primary School explains, PHOTO AND REPORT: EVIE CHAMBERLAIN The children had a great time at curling.“ I think very few of them had any idea of what was involved beforehand so it has been brilliant for them to “experience some new things.
