S2 Trip to coastline at Culzean Castle
The annual S2 Biology fieldtrip to the coastline at Culzean Castle and Country Park will take place during August. Pupils will have the opportunity to use a range of sampling techniques to investigate different ecosystems, helping them develop critical biological investigative techniques.
The excursion will be a full day event, with pupils departing by coach from St Ninian’s High School at 9am sharp and returning just prior to the end of the school day. A packed lunch should be provided and sensible clothing should be worn. It is advised that pupils bring a pair of wellington boots or at least a change of footwear, along with a waterproof jacket, in the event of rain. Since pupils will be sampling a woodland ecosystem, it is recommended that they bring insect repellent to reduce the irritation of midges. The cost of the excursion including entrance fee and travel will be £8.00.
Classes will go on the following days:
Friday 24 August
Mrs McClure’s 2F class
Mrs Beggan’s 2F class
