Children in Oban’s Gaelic-medium P1 and P2 classes experienced a fabulous day of exploration and outdoor learning recently, organised by Stramash. The activities were linked to the children’s Knights and Castles topic, and the day started at Dunollie Castle with a scavenger hunt. The natural materials the children collected were used to make special crowns, and other activities included creating dragon potions and exploring the castle itself.

The group then travelled to Ganavan where they worked together to make a huge sandcastle and a giant picture of a dragon using materials from the beach itself. Class teacher Joanie Garvin said, “The children really enjoyed the activities Stramash organised, and had a fabulous day developing their learning and working together outdoors.
