Read all about it! Success for Forth’s adult learners!

Congratulations to these participants in the Introduction to Modern Scottish Literature course which was so popular it’s been run twice at The Prentice Centre this year. The students were presented with an Award at an event organised to recognise the success of different education groups and classes held on 18 May.

More than twenty people regularly attend the Prentice Centre sessions and some of them attended the City Chambers celebration event (pictured).

There was further success for Forth at the event when Muirhouse Women’s Group also received an award. More on that story to follow … they’re a busy bunch and they’ve proved very hard to pin down so far!

Suttie’s talking Scots literature

Scotland has a proud history of producing internationally renowned writers, from Burns, Walter Scott and Robert Louis Stevenson to contemporary talents like Hugh MacDairmid, Liz Lochhead and Irvine Welsh.  If you’d like to learn more about modern Scottish literature there’s a free course starting at The Prentice Centre later this month that’s just ‘write’ for you!

Starting on 23 January, ‘Modern Scottish Literature’ is a  8 – 10 week course that will run on Monday afternoons from 2.30 – 4.30pm in The Prentice Centre.  Supported by the Workers Education Association and Prentice Centre’s Adult Education Group, the course is free to all participants.

The course tutor is Derek Suttie (pictured), who is no stranger to The Prentice Centre.  Derek was formerly Senior Community Education worker based at the centre in Granton Mains Avenue until he retired last year.
