2014: Young Lochinvar outreach workshops rolled out to over a dozen Schools in Midlothian. Using a freelance Drama Teacher the workshop brought the poem to life by getting the children to take roles and act it out. Afterwards, when the poem was read it had a meaning that the Children could associate with... it even made them think that they had lived the poem. [photos at St. David's] - A Schools Pack and Clothing for the participants to wear is available for other schools if they wish to reenact this themselves.
