This topic will allow learners to learn more about freshwater
ecology, using the life cycle of the brown/sea trout as a
particular theme, grow them in a hatchery and then free into the
Clyde. They will learn about fish farming and releasing the fish
into open river to repopulate the wild trout. Further
resources and support can be found at the Clyde River Foundation
website.
