Dear Parent/Carer

The good news is, our first booklet has now been released, please click on the link below:

https://www.scottishspca.org/education-resources

We will be producing another four booklets which will be released on a monthly basis. Again these will be filled with approx. 20 pages of activities linked to all areas of the curriculum to ensure we are encouraging skills in numeracy, literacy, relate to science, health and wellbeing, expressive arts, languages, RME, social studies and technology.

There will also be a Scottish SPCA Adventure Club Activity pack Extra, which will be suitable for P1-3 pupils and those who require additional support for learning. We already have a nursery pack that is currently been made available online and we will be releasing a newer version of this soon.

Children will be able to demonstrate they have completed each page of the booklet through solving clues as they go along in the form of anagrams. They can only get the letters for their anagram by sourcing the answers relating to each activity (one activity per curriculum area per page based on a specific topic). At the end of the book there will be a page to record all the anagrams and solve our Inspectors mystery. Parents/carers can then submit a photo of the completed sheet to us along with first name, class and school and we will award
certificates each time a child completes a booklet.

We will also be supporting the use of these materials digitally through providing video blogs and other forms of support from our education team.
We want to support as many schools as possible and if we have at least 50% of pupils complete the challenge from a school we are keen to award the school with the status of being Scottish SPCA?s Animal Champions 2020. We are also working closely with Barnardos Scotland so that we can be in a position to offer physical packs to those families who may not have access to the internet.
