Nature And Landscape

Plock College of the Environment and Traditional Skills / Colaiste Àrainneachd is Dualchais a’Phluic

The new Plock College of the Environment and Traditional Skills will create a link between the past and the future and between natural heritage and Gaelic cultural heritage. It will teach skills in measuring and understanding the natural environment and the effect of climate change alongside sustainable indigenous craft and plant skills using natural materials. It will collect and teach skills from Gaelic culture in relation to the natural environment and the history/heritage of the area through oral traditions, song and place names. The college will use the community owned 60 acre The Plock as its classroom. Many activities will take place outdoors, but we will build a Learning Shed, to create an indoor workshop space.
