Little Things, Big Memories - Dumfries and Galloway's Family Experiences
You won’t believe how much family fun awaits in the south west of Scotland. Dumfries & Galloway is a place to splash, roll, explore and roam, but in between the thrills, there’s plenty of time to slow down and experience magical little moments – whether it’s finding that smooth shell as you explore the shoreline, or seeing the shining stars which carpet the sky when night falls.
Get an adrenaline rush at Galloway Activity Centre on Loch Ken, where you can get on the water to traverse the Wobbly Waterpark, or try kayaking, sailing, windsurfing or stand-up paddle boarding. At Laggan Outdoor, see the sparkling Solway Firth as you try water balling or harness up and fly down the hillside on the huge zipwire.
Ring the bell and journey across a loch to Threave Castle, one of the region’s many historic sites, and let your imagination take you back in time. Wander through avenues of blooming flora at one of the region’s many gardens, such as Logan Botanic Garden, or find your favourite sandy bay as you explore the region’s beaches - will you be brave enough for a paddle?!
Enjoy a taste of rural life at Mabie Farm Park and meet the four-legged residents, from donkeys to pot-bellied pigs, or take the reins and discover the joys of horseback riding at one of the region’s riding stables. Ice cream lovers can’t miss the chance to try innovative flavours at Cream o’ Galloway such as Cranachan and whisky, honey & oatmeal. Afterwards, burn off the energy on two wheels and take to one of the 7stanes centres to enjoy incredible mountain bike trails.
In Dumfries & Galloway, you’ll find it’s the little things which make big memories.

Engaging Youth With Indigenous Materials in Libraries and Classrooms
Assessing and incorporating teaching and learning resources by and about First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples is critical for librarians, educators and parents. Awareness of diverse epistemologies, notions of cultural authenticity and historical accuracy, and the influence of colonialism, are essential when considering books, films and interactive media for library and classroom collections. This panel will address challenges facing Indigenous and non-Indigenous librarians, educators and parents when drawing upon materials representing Indigenous peoples and cultures. They will offer insights about such issues as cultural appropriation, stereotypes, addressing colonialism and what to do with dated resources. This session is ideal for teacher candidates, classroom teachers, teacher-librarians, youth librarians and parents.
