Today we had the opportunity to plant some hazel tree saplings. As you can see, the ground was still quite frosty so we had to make a T shape in the ground and then lift the two sections of earth before slotting in the sapling roots. Then we could stamp down the earth around the young tree to give it a chance to stay upright.

After that we learnt about a search engine called Ecosia. There is information about it on the school’s Eco blog, and we are trying to use it at school and at home,  as part of the site’s policy is to plant trees. Please pass on the information to others as this is a really great and easy idea for us all to be able to do our bit for the environment.
