We typically deliver nature workshops at schools in which we have carried out an installation of any planting space such as planters, rain gardens, SuDS planters etc. However we also carry out seed and bulb planting nature workshops for other green spaces in school estates. 

Yes, we provide trowels, gardening gloves, plants and worksheets for the school nature workshops.

Our nature workshops aim to teach children the function of SuDS in their school as well as practical planting skills and the importance of biodiversity.

We can run an hourly workshop session for up to a maximum of 30 children. We usually have a minimum of 2 staff on hand to assist with the workshops.

Our workshops are suitable for school children aged between 5 and 12 years old. We tailor our worksheets, delivery and planting equipment towards the age category of the group.

Our nature workshops last approximately 1 hour.

Our nature workshops feature both practical and educational elements. We begin with a 10 minute introduction to SuDS and practical planting skills, followed by a 30 minute hands-on planting workshop where children get stuck in. To end the session, we provide engaging worksheets to help children reflect on what they have learnt.

 

A nature workshop is an opportunity for schools to get involved in planting up SuDS features like rain gardens and SuDS planters. 

SuDS create engaging and natural learning environments that students are able to interact with on a daily basis. Features like gardens, pollinator habitats, and outdoor learning areas can inspire curiosity about the environment and enhance play.
