Tuesday 15th May

When we woke up we went down to the Dolphin House and got our breakfast. We then got ready to go on a Coastal walk from the Heads of Ayr to Dunure.

We were given welly boots, waterproof jackets and rucksacks. The rucksacks were to carry our packed lunch and any stone or shell specimens we collected.

We collected stones such as granite, jasper and agate.

We learned from Henry how the rocks were formed, and how this area was once part of a Volcano. Luckily it is now extinct.

Coastal Environment Study

After the walk we were all given a survey sheet about our walk.

These are our results. We rated the coast most highly for lack of noise (90%) and abundance of wildlife (87%).
