#childrensmentalhealthweek gives an important focus to the benefits of outdoor learning to children’s emotional and mental wellbeing. Exploring nature (especially amongst trees) can help improve mood and self-esteem, reduce stress and encourage independence and resilience. ❤️🌳

Lovely morning with P5 pupils from St Peter's for Connecting Threads' River to Town project! We investigated land minibeasts in riparian woodland along Gala Water. Learners also explored freshwater minibeasts with Ben from RiverTweed & made prints with artist Georgie Fay

Had a great afternoon exploring Holy Trinity First School's lovely grounds as we learnt about pollinators. 'I learnt to look closer at nature to see exciting, hidden things we miss' 🌼 #DestinationTweedUK #heritagelotteryfund #Euwader #bluespaces

St Boswell's P6/7 pupils had a mindful moment next to the River Tweed on Thursday, taking in the sounds of the water and watching the oystercatchers fly by. A lovely way to reflect on their time visiting us at Old Melrose. The National Lottery Heritage Fund LIFE WADER #DestinationTweedUK

Fantastic morning with pupils from Holy Trinity First School today! We explored the rockpools at Haven Beach to learn more about our coastal wildlife, then picked any litter we could find that might cause them and their habitat harm. #DestinationTweedUK

Another lovely session with pupils from Holy Trinity First School this week. This time we explored amazing trees in the school grounds. We acted out the parts of a tree, used leaves to work out their names and made our own leaf bashing pictures. #DestinationTweedUK

Last week, learners from Edenside Primary had their first session exploring the biodiversity of the Cobby, their local River Tweed spot. We surveyed riverbank plants, identified trees using leaves, and learned about the impact of invasive non-native plants #destinationtweeduk

Big thanks to Ben from Tweed Foundation who joined us for a River Biodiversity session yesterday with Edenside Primary. Ben delivered amazing activities about fish and freshwater invertebrates. We also used binoculars to get a closer look at the birdlife of the Cobby🐟🦆
