Nature sighting at the school

This spring has brought a hive of activity at the school garden and across the wider community.

A nesting nuthatch has been spotted at the school. Our very own Ms. Lambard has been keeping an eye on the nest and has noted that they are now feeding the new hatchlings.

A red and black frog hopper has also been spotted in the school garden.

Finally, a Gwynne’s Mining Bee was spotted. This bee is a solitary bee found in grassland and open woodland between March and May. It is fairly common and feeds on a wide variety of plants including coltsfoot, dandelion and daffodil pollen which we have on the campus. It lays its eggs underground.
