Udny Green Eco Fun Day

Our Eco Fun Day On 25th April 2012, we joined 11 other schools for an ECO fun day at Haddo Estate. On arrival we all congregated in the theatre to discuss the day’s schedule. Our first activity was building bird houses which was a fun challenge. Our next activity was a tour of Haddo House which we thoroughly enjoyed. We especially liked the paintings, finding the secret passage, the library and all the history connected to the house. After lunch we planted Hawthorn and Rowan trees behind the Pheasantry. We discovered that making a T-cut to plant trees was very effective. Unfortunately we were only able to plant two trees per school. We finished the day by becoming Nature Detectives. We had to find and solve clues to a crime that had taken place. A stoat had knocked over a blue-tit nest box and eaten the eggs. We all greatly enjoyed our day out and would gladly do it all again. Thank you very much to everyone who helped organise the day.
