During the holidays we received great news, that Port Ellen were a commended school in the Kew Gardens Endeavour competition! The competition was to find out about the secret life of trees in your local area and write about them. P67 had learned about how Islay has actual rainforests! They are some of the last temperate Rainforests in the UK. They visited one of the places at Olistaidh, where they did observational drawings of the trees. They then researched them and created presentation fact files about the rainforests and where they are. One of these files are featured on the winners page on the Kew Gardens website.
