Where: Near Esporta
When: Monday Afternoons as advised.
Contact: Mr Abigail for further details.
Our main sphere of activity is the Water Garden, between
Esporta and the Oxford Canal, where we are trying to
establish a small wetland nature reserve. The work is
physical, so you will get muddy and tired. Hopefully
however, you will feel the satisfaction derived from
creating better habitats for creatures such as water
voles, newts, and a wide variety of birds, and from
improving access to allow observation of these species.
Other projects will include the making and installation
of bird nest boxes and bat roosting boxes, and the creation
of a data-base of the many tree species to be found
in the School grounds.
The more committed may involve themselves with concervation
volunteers in Oxford, or visit other official nature reserves
in the country. |
