Lochgelly North currently has two projects running - an Art project and a project called My Body. 
The Art project has been looking at the work of Scottish Artist Gary Anderson, and in particular his
piece "A Maori and his Tongue".  We are using a variety of media such as paint, face paint, clay and photography. 

The My Body class has seen the young people involved in making a heart, lungs and stomach and also
making various items of clothing using a variety of materials.

Lochgelly South's project is a media project filming gymnastics, dance and comedy.  This is a lunchtime
project with rehearsals one week and filming "their" turn the next. 

St Kenneth's - it's great to be back here!  This project is a lunchtime club involving P7 pupils. 
The theme this time was Christmas crafts and we were up to our ears in glue and glitter - driving ourselves "crackers"!

During the summer The EDGE Project took a group from our L8R’s youth club  to Go Ape in Aberfoyle. Go Ape is  a high wire forest adventure course where you tackle the giant obstacle courses high up in the trees and to finish it off you take on the UK’s longest zip slide which is over 400 meters long and 150ft high. We also took the group on a city day experience to Edinburgh. The young people got the chance to visit The Real Mary King’s Close, the Edinburgh Dungeon’s and the Scottish Parliament as well as soaking up the atmosphere of the Fringe Festival and witnessing some street entertainment

This year the EDGE Project  ran  a week of activities in July for children aged 8 to 12 during the summer holidays.  During the week we took a group of ten children on outings as varied as a trip to the Sensation Science Centre in Dundee to a scary trip to Edinburgh Dungeons. The children who are all from different schools in the local area had a great time and it was lovely to see them develop friendships with each other over the week.

Playground Blethers does what it says on the tin ... the Face to Face Worker for the EDGE Project goes along at playtime on Fridays and chats with the children, hearing their jokes and stories.  She plays games and watches as they demonstrate their skipping rhymes and hand clapping.  Out of all this social activity has sprung an idea for a project that will begin after the summer break.  This will be a video project with groups and individuals making short films of their songs, dance etc.
