Next term we are diving into our conservation topic. We have been exploring and observing the signs of spring in our woodlands and surrounding areas so we will be participating in the Woodland Trust Nature’s Survey to record things we see around us. Phenology is the study of the times of recurring natural events like the flowering of snowdrops, leaves appearing on trees and hearing certain birds. Through adding data to Nature’s Survey we will help scientists gather data on how climate change is affecting nature.

Although our woodlands are small we can help make a difference!
