Curriculum for Excellence Resources

This performance invites you to explore the concept of family, what it means to care and be cared for, supporting work around relationships in Health and Wellbeing. The incredible filming locations offer a taste of the glory of Scotland’s natural environment, with potential links to work in Social Studies. The approach to dance and movement in a natural environment could also support learning in Expressive Arts and Outdoor Education.
