P7 Haughton Park Visit

Haughton Park Visits

Our primary 7 class have been working with The Reading Bus and Music Without Bars in the project- Aberdeen, My Place in the Natural World.

Aberdeen, My Place in the Natural World, aims to empower young people from Aberdeen to develop new creative digital media to celebrate and share the outstanding beauty of four Country Parks in the North-East of Scotland. Our primary 7 class have been focusing on Haughton Park, Alford.

This has been a very exciting opportunity for our pupils to work with a team of professional artists, attend site visits to the different parks, research each through a series of; poems, storytelling, artwork, photography, and interview local rangers and residents, to record a unique geographical impression of the areas. Back in school, creative specialists have worked with pupils to create media resources inspired by the findings that will be translated into sonic maps, promo-trailers, podcasts and an ebook amongst others.
