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🐟🦆
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

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

Class 4 had a great time at the beach examining the habitat of rock pools and litter picking to improve the environment. Thank you to Tweed Forum for their support. 😀🦀🚯#inquisitivethinkers #challengeseekers #kindhearts
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
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. @HeritageFundUK @LifeWader #DestinationTweedUK
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

Loved visiting the P1-3 class at Lilliesleaf Primary this afternoon. We enjoyed an invertebrate hunt in the sunshine in their amazing nature garden! Looking forward to welcoming you to Old Melrose next week 🌳 #Destinationtweeduk #heritagelotteryfund #EUWader
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 @RiverTweedNews & made prints with artist Georgie Fay
