South Ayrshire Council and Ayrshire College are continuing their partnership giving youngsters real-life experience.
The council's ground maintenance team allows young people from the college to work on real craft projects in outdoor public settings.
Over 100 students graduated in bricklaying and masonry, and have carried out significant work in Belleisle Park.
Students are now working at Corsehill Park, where they will be undertaking a range of different restoration and repair works.
This includes working with a course trainer to improve the entrance to the walled garden.
