Sensory Christmas! The Gibbons have been getting festive. They reveled in the sensory experience of scrunching up tissue paper and sticking it to collage...
Our new garden at Young Friends will be paying special attention to attracting a variety of butterflies. Declining populations of butterflies as a result of climate change have consequences for many other species. Animals such as birds, small mammals and other insects that depend on butterflies and caterpillars, can lose an important food source and have to shift their diet to less desirable or less available species. Therefore our new garden will be doing its bit to help them and to teach the children why this is so important
We've got plenty of them around as well as bees as always planted with them in mind 😊
Over a third of hedgehogs have been lost since the millennium. Researchers now believe that we have less than 1 million left in the UK. These little creatures need your help now more than ever before. We have introduced hedghog homes into our nursery and Nature plot garden which the children learn about and check often for paw prints. Creating a hedgehog friendly garden is not to difficult either, please click on this useful link which will tell you all the tricks you need to know to entice hedgehogs into your garden.

I remember as a little girl always seeing hedgehogs in our garden. I've not seen one in over 10 years now. This weekend I'm planning to create more holes under our fences to hopefully encourage more in x
Oh I also wish they would ban slug pellets too. These are killing so much wildlife

We love growing our own at home and releasing them locally. Such a lovely experience.
