The event is being staged to mark ten-years of the Wildlife Champions project which for the past decade has seen the charity Devon Wildlife Trust pioneer ‘nature-based learning’ locally, working with schools to make the natural world part of children’s education.
The Wildlife Champions Day is taking place at Exeter’s Mincinglake Valley Park on Thursday 10th March between 9am and 2.30pm. 21 schools will each send ten pupils to take part in a day which will mix outdoor learning about conservation with taking practical action to help local wildlife.
