Greenland White Fronted Goose Project

Today the S1’s were learning about the Greenland White-Fronted Goose Project. Calum Murray from the RSPB gave us a great insight into the type of conservation work that the project involves and the environmental factors that influence numbers of the geese wintering in the area. Many thanks to Calum for providing this opportunity.

Rural Careers Talks

Today we had Dr Jessica Rodgers from the Galloway Fisheries Trust and Laura Williamson from SRUC in to talk to the S3’s about rural careers. Jessica gave us a fascinating insight into her work in fisheries conservation and Laura provided a valuable insight into the range of qualifications available at the Barony Campus. Many thanks to Shalla at the Crichton Carbon Centre for helping to organise the talks.

Kayaking

The better weather has allowed us to get out kayaking recently as part of our Wednesday afternoon activities. We had a great paddle around Earlston and next time out we’ll be visiting Carlingwark. Many thanks to the guys at Carlingwark Outdoor Education for making such experiences possible.
