Hostelling Scotland Youth & Volunteering

So can you make a boat for a toy? What materials should you use? What sinks and what floats? Activities and a reading of the great story by @greta_yorke can be found on our web page blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/ea/learningout… #STEM @EdScotLfS @LorraineRoss20 @EacEducation @EACattainment @SAPOE_org

Hostelling is usually about a coming together, but in these difficult times, please listen to the experts' advice! Stay safe, stay home, stay healthy! Raising hands #StayHomeSaveLives

Thanks to all for the kind messages of support and when we all start travelling again, we will be here for you and ready to provide the warm welcome you’ve come to expect from our organisation. Please stay well and look after one another. hostellingscotland.org.uk/covid-19/

This decision hasn’t been taken lightly but the health, safety and wellbeing of our people and guests along with protecting the communities in which we all live and work is our utmost priority at this time.

It’s with a heavy heart that today we have to announce the temporarily closure of our Youth Hostel network until further notice.

@shettlestongrow @HostellingYandV @ScienceConnects Such an amazing experience for them all! We love our hosteling residentials 🙌🏽😄

We're looking forward to welcoming you back and so pleased we're able to help your young people explore amazing places across Scotland!

Great planning workshop with @RYA_YOUTHCLUB to co-design a film for their #outdoor #stem residential to Rowardennan Youth Hostel #stemambassadors @ScienceConnects

Great meeting with young people and workers from @PiltonYouthProj loads of ideas for their film of their upcoming #explorerfunded residential to Cairngorm Lodge Youth Hostel. Watch this space! @hostellingscot

The @eaclost @NNOL_Scotland training weekend on all things #outdoorlearning was brilliant. From #stem in the outdoors to #outdoorart & @realdcameron reminding everyone (with the help of dancing letters) about what really matters in #education

Fantastic #inspiring #humourous start from @realdcameron the real challenges in real education in tough times “what really matters” #engagement

Looking forward to meeting everyone & sharing all things @hostellingscot @NNOL_Scotland @eaclost Scottish Teachers' Dirty Weekend @FSC_Millport
