Wilder School - Southwold Primary School

This was our first session at Southwold Primary.  In the morning we worked with KS2 and started off by carrying out an audit of the school grounds and the existing habitats. We measured the size of the playground and counted the number of trees and flowerbeds. We also recorded how many minibeast homes, log piles, nest boxes and pollinator pitstops were already there too. After this, we did a bug hunt to see how many minibeasts we could find as well as a scavenger hunt around the playground to see if we could find specific things such as a 'green item'. We finished the morning by constructing a list of what we would like to add to the school site to improve it for wildlife. 

We repeated this session with the KS1 class in the afternoon and they also came up with lots of brilliant ideas of how to improve the school site.
