Enviro Learners at Glenham School – 24 September 2021
I joined the students for their learning day at Glenelgin – a wonderful plot gifted for the schools use where there are streams, an outdoor classroom and native plantings. The children collected data on the stream velocity and clarity and looked for macro-invertebrates finding water worms, mayfly and snails. I led a native plant activity with the students learning the names of plants (common, Te Reo and scientific names) and interesting things about the plants growing at their place before planting some more native trees. We found shield bugs and case moth cases. A great day out in nature learning!
