Around 150 school pupils chanted 'save our pool' and waved placards to get their message across as senior council officials attended a community consultation event.
The pupils - many of them also members of the eight swimming clubs that also use the school after-hours - were protesting about Falkirk Council 's plans to close four school swimming pools, including Larbert High, this summer.
Ava Brooks (17) was among several sixth years who were there to get their points across. As a part-time lifeguard and swimming coach, she said she can see the benefits the pool has for people's mental and physical health.
