Boating on Scotsman’s Flash with Pine 2
On Friday some of the children from Pine had the opportunity to get out in a boat on Scotsman’s Flash. The children learnt all about safety on the water and how to use a paddle. Whilst on the water the children spotted lots of wildlife: swans, ducks, geese and a heron. Lots of learning. Lots of fun.
