Fishing for Schools

BBC Radio Wales - Country Focus, Fishing for Schools

Out of the classroom and into the countryside.

Offering opportunities for young people to enjoy learning and gain a wealth of skills through angling.

Since 2007, Fishing for Schools has taken young people out of the classroom and into the countryside but it's more than getting them hooked on fishing.   Founded by fly fisherman Charles Jardine it gives children a chance to learn outdoors, connect with nature and gain new skills and confidence.  Caroline Evans joins children from Alway primary school, Newport, Gwent at the nearby Llyswerry Ponds for a lesson in Fishing!
