Outdoor Learning in the the Outer Hebrides
The work of the Outdoor Learning Team in the Outer Hebrides; Helping soften the classroom walls and to developing Learning for Sustainability
For the last few years the Outdoor Team have worked with the Scaladale Centre to deliver RYA Youth Sailing Scheme Stage 1 and 2 in Harris so this year with the new marina facilities it ran in Tarbert. The new pontoons in East Loch Tarbert Marina made it very easy to run and the facilities are excellent.
In July the CnES Sailing school ran a week of sailing in Stornoway to get the young people to RYA Stage 1 and 2 of the Youth Sailing Scheme. The weather was very favourable with a lovely breeze and sunshine. All the young people achieved the awards.
