🌊🔬 We brought our @ScottishPower-funded Energy through Time project to the Shetland Science Fair!
✨Over 2 days, 250+ students from Shetland schools got hands-on with archaeology workshops, designed water wheels and tackled climate change’s impact on Shetland’s heritage!

Brilliant to welcome @crookstoncastle primary to the Castle today for #OutdoorClassroomDay
They got a hands-on history lesson, joining in the work of finding and recording the Castle's masons' marks.

@ArchScot brought in some really interesting artefacts from the Stone Age - some of them were 6,000 years old! Our novel ‘Wolf Brother’ was brought to life and we got a good idea of what life was like at that time #activelearning

We've prioritised the resources that we know teachers use most, as not all our digital resources are available right now, following a cyber-attack in October 2023.
The best-loved articles are now hosted on a platform called Padlet: padlet.com/discovering_liter…
