Summary:

  • 17 sets of twins are set to begin their school journey in Inverclyde, also known whimsically as Twinverclyde.
  • Children exhibit enthusiasm and anticipation as they prepare for their first day of school, looking forward to making friends and enjoying the toys.
  • Some children prioritize losing baby teeth as a significant event, highlighting the diverse range of concerns among the young students.
  • Teachers face the challenge of managing and educating a sizable influx of twins, requiring innovative strategies to engage and instruct them effectively.


Meet Jude and Eloise, Aaron and Anna, Millie and Skye, Julia and Bianca, Charlotte and Robert, Libby and Ellie, Joe and Sara, Emily and Isaac, Ariana and Amelia, Charlotte and Lily, Chiara and Louise, Michael and Gabriel, Emily and Grace, Noah and Grace, and Sam and Arya. And no, you're not seeing double, they really are 15 of the 17 twins who are starting school this year in Inverclyde or maybe that should be Twinverclyde. It's a bumper year and it's fair to say the kids are buzzing to get going.


Excitement for the First Day

I go to nursery when I was four years old. And how old are you now? Five. You're both five and are you excited to start school? Yeah. Do you know? I'm going to primary one.

You're going to make lots of new friends do you think? Yeah. What are you most excited about? See Jack. Oh, does your big brother go to the same school? Yeah. What are you most looking forward to? What are you most excited about? The toys. The toys.

Mixed Priorities

But for some, it's still the much more important things in life that are taking priority. My tooth is going to fall out so yeah, my tooth already falls out.

Only one tooth fell out but the other one is wiggly so another one is good to fall out. And spare a thought for the teachers across Inverclyde trying to keep track of these tiny twosoms. Put your hands up there. Olly Dickinson, STV News. Everybody, put your hands. Give me a wave. Can I get a ya?.


With a record number of twins embarking on their educational journey in Inverclyde, the local schools are brimming with the excitement of new students and the challenges of managing so many pairs. As these young ones eagerly step into Twinverclyde's classrooms, their individuality and shared experiences will undoubtedly leave a lasting mark.

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction?

Ukraine War: Is the defence of Bakhmut a distraction? I'm joined now by the former senior military intelligence officer, Philip Ingram. Good to see you again, Philip. Now, of course, Russian forces have made some advances in recent days in Bakhmut, but on the whole, there's been very little movement on the front line in recent weeks and months. Why is that? Yeah, well, exactly. Day 374 of Vladimir Putin's 10-day Special Military Operation. And the Russians, we keep talking about this spring offensive. They're probing the front lines in different places. Bakhmut will more detail that in a moment, but further north, up around Kramina and in the south, around Donetsk, they're trying to see where their weakness is in the Ukrainian defences. And they're not really finding any. The things that are influencing at the moment, the weather, the ground is softening up. ...

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis

Why the world was wrong about Putin | Analysis People are packing up in their cars. They're getting out of here. A few days before I found myself standing there on the edge of Kharkiv, watching those first tank shells hit into the apartment blocks in Saltyvka, my editor, Louis Emmanuel, had asked me to come up with something to be published on the day of the war, if the war began, explaining to readers why this was happening. And I was hoping it would never be published. It was, and the answer I came up with was, probably in the simple balance of power. I quote it, Russia's military is at its strongest and most capable since the Cold War. Its public finances are also in good order, and Mr Putin may believe he is well placed to bear the costs of the conflict and inevitable sanctions. We'll come back to that in a second. The West is conversely at a moment of historic econo...

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired?

Ukraine War: What missiles have Russia fired? I mean, he caveated his remarks so that he wasn't departing from the official government line, which is that Ukraine makes the calls here when Ukraine's ready, then Ukraine may negotiate. But the fact that he, that comment we were taking out of context, and people will say that Rishi Sunak believes that there has to be a negotiation at, so at what point are we going to lean on the Ukrainians to negotiate? And I think that in Kiev, I think it won't be very, they won't welcome the fact that he said it. It's also, it's just not true that all wars end at the negotiating table. It's a line we've heard from the beginning, right from the start. People should read a book occasionally. The Second World War did not end in negotiation. One of yours perhaps. Yes. The First World War did not end in a meaningful negotia...
