🌿 What an incredible experience for pupils and families at Queensmead Primary Academy in Leicester!

When the idea of a “pop-up” wetland was first suggested, no one quite expected just how impressive it would be - it’s safe to say it has been a huge success.

Throughout the week, children have had the opportunity to explore the wetland, discovering nature in a hands-on and exciting way right on their doorstep. It’s been fantastic to see their enthusiasm and curiosity brought to life.

A huge thank you to the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT) for making this possible - such a generous and inspiring opportunity for our school community. 👏
