SCHOOL GROUNDS AND NEARBY WILD PLACES

Do you ...

• Need some inspiration for taking groups outside?
• Ever wondered how you could use your school grounds more?

Then Shropshire Wildlife Trust has the answer for you

What is it?
The Green Space Audit - a unique resource for your school on wild places and things to do in and around your grounds.

What's involved?
It won't take up any of your time. Shropshire Wildlife Trust will spend a couple of hours looking around the school grounds and surrounding countryside collecting information that will be used to produce your school's Green Space Audit.

What information will the audit contain?
Lots of inspiration and ideas for taking groups into your outdoor classroom. It will identify suitable sites and suggest activities for pupils (we'll even do the risk assessments).

Resources for teachers include maps of the school and surrounding countryside. Packed into the report are descriptions of habitats in and around the school, facts about the wildlife of the area as well as information sheets, hand outs and future development ideas.

How much will it cost?
£150 + VAT

What do I need to do?
Simply get in touch with us and we'll do the rest!

"Thank you for helping us put the hedgehog houses in the wildlife area and helping us tidy it up. It is now looking a lot better and nicer. We hope we will get a lot more wildlife.

I especially enjoyed putting the sticks, leaves and mud on our hedgehog house. It was really fun getting muddy hands"
