Bird houses, and native plants

 

The addition of a wildlife garden and birdhouses on the nature trail started in 2021 with support from S.E.A. will promote more biodiversity and provide students the chance to observe an abundance of plant, animal, and insect life. This increase in environmental activity will allow for a richer data collection experience. Teacher Colin Amundsen, who is committed to outdoor education and expeditionary learning, notes that when students are connected to nature, they perform better in the school and are more fully engaged.
