Distraught pupils are pleading with irresponsible drivers to “kill” their speed - and not the ducks - outside their local primary school in Scone.
With support from outgoing Lib Dem Councillor Lewis Simpson, the children who attend Robert Douglas Memorial have made posters and drafted letters calling for more action after a spate of fatalities among the Scone Pond duck population.
They are calling on Perth and Kinross Council to extend the present 20mph speed limit in Stormont Road, where five ducks have already been killed so far this year - mowed down and killed by errant drivers.
