Yarm School Holiday Club

Wednesday, July 18th 2012

Children from Yarm holiday club visited the reserve today as part of an action packed summer programme. The group did pond dipping, sweep netting and enjoyed playing in the dams. On a walk they learnt about habitat management and about the wildlife that lives at Foxglove.

School Visit

At the end of the day, echo location was the theme and the youngsters played 'Bat and Moth'!
