Reception, Year 1 and 2 all enjoyed a fascinating visit from our local beekeeper. They particularly enjoyed trying on her beekeeping suit and examining her beehive equipment. Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 all had an inspiring and hands-on session at our forest school site, taking part in habitat building activities with Lisa Stevens from the Ashdown Education Team. They explored threats to biodiversity and solutions to counterbalance these such as building hedgehog highways in your garden fence and nature corridors.
Through fun games such as “Oh Deer” and “Frog and Heron”, they developed their understanding of how habitats are so essential for the survival of species.
