P4 Scrabo Trip

7th Oct 2022

On Monday 3rd October the P4s visited Scrabo Tower and Killynether Wood. It was a blustery morning and the children were so excited to be going on a school trip!

We learnt how old Scrabo Tower was and why it was built. We spotted other local landmarks from Scrabo Hill -  such as Island Hill, Strangford Lough, Belfast and the Mourne Mountains.

We then visited Killynether Wood where we identified tress by looking at their leaves. We spotted poisonous fungus and saw badger setts.

What a beautiful morning and a great way to learn about our locality. We hope you enjoy the photographs.
