Wild about Life programme
Big Bug Hunt
A fun, summer activity where pupils learn to identify bugs have lots of fun and collect donations from friends and family for being brave enough to take part.
Environmental Promises
Pupils pledge to keep a promise such as 'don’t drop litter' and ask family and friends to encourage them to keep it by pledging a donation.
Multi-colour Mufti Day for Wildlife
Robins have red breasts, kingfishers have blue backs, and cowslips are yellow. Celebrate the colours of nature on your special day with The Wildlife Trust.
River of Silver
Raise awareness of the importance of water for wildlife by creating a sparkling river of silver coins which can be donated to the Trust to help its work in conserving otters and water voles.
Spellathon – Wild about words
Pupils collect donations for the challenge of learning how to spell environmental and wildlife words.
Support a project
The Wildlife Trust needs your help to develop and deliver innovative projects across our area. As a charity we rely on voluntary donations and we need your support to help us continue our work – supporting a project enables your school to get involved directly in improving the environment for local wildlife and people. You will benefit from the positive publicity surrounding the project as well as opportunities for staff and pupils to get involved. Our community fundraising officer can help your pupils tailor a fundraising programme to proactively raise the cash to support the project.
For further details on how your school can get involved, with either the Wild about Life fundraising programme or by supporting a project, please contact Linda Marshall on 01234 364213 or email linda.marshall (at) wildlifebcnp.org
