Outdoor Learning in the the Outer Hebrides
The work of the Outdoor Learning Team in the Outer Hebrides; developing Learning for Sustainability and helping soften the classroom walls
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.
Over the last three years the outdoor team have been working closely with the Scaladale Centre to deliver high quality outdoor learning in the Outer Hebrides. Part of this has been RYA level 1,2 and 3 dinghy sailing courses for young people. Sailing of the pontoons in Maraig which Marine Harvest are generous in letting us use, we use the Scaladale’s Bahai sailing boats, some of the young people who we have trained are now coming back to instruct on the courses.
Even if your legs don’t work you can still sail
And it doesn’t matter what the weather
