Primary Schools

We will take you to the Caldon Canal and deliver a session that will combine history with geography, by using our surroundings and our imagination. You will learn why the canals were built, what they were originally used for and how their use has changed over time.

We will look at how the canals stay full and what happens when they want to go down or up a hill. We will also inspect the land around the canal and see how the two impact on each other.
