Hurworth Primary School

Thursday, June 21st 2012

Heavy rain did not dampen the mood of the children from Hurworth Primary School who visited the reserve today.

We braved the rain this morning with groups doing habitat walks, pond dipping and a minibeast safari.  As the rain worsened over lunch we decided to stay in the classroom for the last hour of the visit.  Here the children built a human tree, played animal guessing games and asked us many interesting questions.
