P5-7 enjoyed a fascinating trip to Cruachan.
At Cruachan Visitor Centre you can learn all about how electricity can be quickly generated using the power of water. There is an interactive educational exhibition and an exciting guided tour inside the Hollow Mountain, to inspire future engineers. The website says about Biodiversity... The Highland landscape that surrounds Cruachan Power Station is integral to how it runs and maintaining the health of the land, the wildlife and biodiversity of the area is of upmost importance. For the past seven years, an ecologist has conducted surveys of the site in support of the Biodiversity Action Plan, which covers the area from the Visitor Centre to the dam. The area has operated a Biodiversity Plan since 2005, to help wildlife on its landholdings. It promotes habitats and species, and sets out a timetable for improvement measures. |
