Pond Maintenance

Primary 7s have been busy clearing out the pond in our school nature garden.  When we first arrived, we weren’t sure if there was a pond in there – it was so overgrown!

Everyone got straight to work.  It wasn’t long before we began to see lots of frogs appearing to take a look at what we were up to.

Some pupils are very keen to get right in the middle of the action. We are wondering if we should try to measure how much water comes out of their wellies each week, when it is time to head back to class!

We are enjoying our pond visits and finding out how we can improve this area, so that the frogs continue to thrive and return year after year.  Some special plants and bugs have been kindly donated, to help breathe new life into our pond.
