West Lothian schools among first in the country to learn surfing and skateboarding

West Lothian schools will be among the first in the country encouraged to "get on board" with a chance to learn the highly individual sporting skills of surfing and skateboarding. Alongside the recently B-listed listed Livingston Skatepark, a major new wave pool surf resort means youngsters have surf breaking on their doorsteps without a trip to the coast. And it is hoped access to these recreational sports will appeal to children who have no interest in traditional team sports.
