The school won first prize in Scotland’s Finest Woods Schools Award, an initiative supported by the Forestry Commission and the Scottish Forrestry Society. Cocksburnpath pupils impressed the judges with their work to reopen a disused path through an area of local woodland. Photograph: Alan Peebles.
