Shott Stories

Martha and Florence are back. This week they are joined by new voice, Jessica. After two weeks of historical time travel, we're now firmly rooted in the present day; Glasgow of all places, for a touching story of friendship and the trials of starting at a new school. Follow along as we talk about Livvy and her first few weeks at St. Robert's School in Glasgow. Livvy and handbags don't mix, and that becomes apparent when she falls foul of the school's popular princess, Sasha. There all kinds of gaps to fill in here with this one, so please do email us your ideas to shottstories@grayshott.hants.sch.uk

Tell us about the best meal you ever had; tell us about the time you saw something that made your heart swell up. Whatever it is, you could share it with us ON THE AIR. You could share your story with the world. If you'd like to be part of this, email us on shottstories@grayshott.hants.sch.uk. Be courageous; share your story.
