Lucky kids picked for Obama dinner

Two school children have won a competition to attend a dinner with Michelle Obama in Edinburgh.

Pupils were asked to submit a video on the topic of “If I ruled Scotland” for a chance to go to the event next Tuesday.

Melissa Croft, 14, from Mearns Castle High School in East Renfrewshire and Cerys Gough, 14, from Langholm Academy in Dumfries and Galloway, were picked by organisers The Hunter Foundation as winners.

Their films focused on bullying and child poverty.
