We\u00a0 set up a tank system in school where 100 salmon eggs\u00a0were left to hatch under our care.\u00a0The Eco Committee and Primary\u00a05D pupils\u00a0received a visit from a fisheries biologist who told us all about the lifecycle of the Atlantic Salmon and how to care for them as part of this project. Classes throughout the school have watched a short animation film all about their lifecycle. Our eggs have now all hatched and the salmon (now known as alevins) are currently feeding off their yolk sacs. Next week, members of our Eco Committee, Mrs Dyson and Mrs Howie\u00a0will accompany the salmon as they are released by the fisheries biologist at the Dee Hatchery next to Loch Ken.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8109.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-686\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8109-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"SAM_8109\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8099.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-685\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8099-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"SAM_8099\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8092.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-684\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8092-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"SAM_8092\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8122.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-687\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8122-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"SAM_8122\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8124.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-688\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8124-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"SAM_8124\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8167.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-689\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/dg\/dalbeattieprimaryschoolblog\/files\/2016\/03\/SAM_8167-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"SAM_8167\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are very excited to be participating in the Salmon in the Classroom Project run by Galloway Fisheries Trust.
