Education Scotland has launched a national challenge for learners to design a double-sided billboard to be seen by people entering and leaving Scotland.
The design challenge is being run through the Marks on the Landscape website , an interdisciplinary learning resource focussed on creativity skills, within the learning context of the land regeneration project Fife Earth.
The challenge is aimed at those working within second, third and fourth curriculum levels. It could be incorporated into planning for a number of curriculum areas including art and design, social studies, religious and moral education, technologies and sciences, and the themes of sustainability and global citizenship.

MAC is a specially built lorry, the same size as a double-decker bus, which will bring the museum to your venue. The current show – A Cabinet of Curiosities – is all about collecting. From a whale’s ear to a Zulu spear, these curious things tell stories about Fife’s past – its landscape and the lives of its people, from the earliest times up to the present day.
MAC is FREE and comes out to schools and community venues.
