Vyrnwy is Outstanding!

What a term! The LIFE education team has worked remarkably hard this summer, 678 children have been taken up on the moor above Lake Vyrnwy since May to learn about the habitat and the work of the project. Bookings for next term are already being taken so it looks as if we will have a busy autumn term as well.

The project is also delighted to announce the success of the RSPB’s field teachers in their Learning Outside the Classroom Quality Badge assessment. The teachers were awarded ‘outstanding’ for their education provision. The LIFE project education on the blanket bog was one of the areas assessed. Well done to all involved!
