Week 1
-
On our first week the group are working as a class and will go home with tasks and challenges set each week as families are not currently allowed into school.
The class chose the name 'The Fairlie Thistles' as this is what is on their school logo and lots of them can be found locally - better known as 'jaggies' here in Scotland.
We recapped on what we had been told about John Muir and the award and looked at our own personal responsibilities and then at the Scottish Outdoors Access Code - a set of rules to help keep us safe and protect the environment when we are outdoors.
We came up with some of our own rules in smaller groups - 'Don't scare animals, don't light fires in the forest and stay safe' .
