First Minister Nicola Sturgeon welcomed eight students from the Scottish Ballet’s International Youth Exchange Programme to Bute House following their return from America.

The 12 month project is for gifted Scottish dancers aged 14-24 years and a key part of it is the international visit, which was in April 2017 with TISCH (School of the Performing Arts) at New York University and The Joyce Theatre.

The First Minister met the students earlier this at TISCH in New York during her visit to the United States.
