Once again we were delighted to welcome back Ian Johnson from the Seedlings at School charity. Ian supported us three years ago by donating and planting lots of trees for our field and wildlife area (including the apple trees near the hen coop). This week he joined us again to teach the children the importance of trees and woodland to provide habitats for a number of animals, including mini-beasts. Ian brought along a number of imaginary animals and set the task of getting the children to design a habitat for these animals using any materials they could find. Thank you for your time Ian!
It looks like the children learnt a lot about habitats in this session. The follow up work in the classroom built on these outside hands on experiences.
Applegarth give a big thanks to Betty’s Tea Rooms for sponsoring this work again.
