Community action part two




In the afternoon students went to the Lickey End nature reserve and continued with the work that the school have done to support the Water Vole population in this area.

Work consisted of planting a variety of plants that Water Voles like to eat throughout the year including Marsh Marigolds and the Water Iris.

This involved wading through the water in very attractive clothing! but it was great fun.......


































Keen community service students working in the school conservation garden. Half of this activity day was spent in the garden creating a wildlife garden and planting in preparation for the Three Counties Show garden next year.
