P5 – Fish Release

Image result for brown trout

This afternoon we braved the cold as we set out to take our fish on the next part of their journey. We released them in a small burn behind the golf course. This will allow them to grow a little more before they find their way to the River Clyde.

Having the fish in class has been a wonderful experience and I have to say just how well you all looked after them. Out of the 200 eggs we received, we managed to keep a whopping 184 alive! That is just fantastic and Lesley, our scientist, was absolutely delighted. Well done Primary 5!

Thank you to our parent helpers who came along with us today. Here are a few photographs from this afternoon.
