Ecology

Central to Ecology at Beaudesert is one aim, connection. Connection of our children with other parts of nature through naming and observing, discovery and creativity. The hope is this connection, grounded in knowledge, is also felt, cherished and enjoyed. This relationship matters for our children’s wellbeing and to feel part of nature, not outside of it, is vital to foster care for our wider environment.

Out in the school grounds, a familiar place is explored in different ways with a range of themes throughout the seasons. Some of the things you might find happening in Ecology lessons include; naming and identifying trees, surveying for invertebrates and reptiles, camouflaging teddies, writing fungi folklore stories in the woods or creating ‘wood sprites’ to protect the trees!

Year 5 Ecology Photography Competition

Below are beautiful images captured by Year 5 children for a nature photography challenge.  Children were encouraged to think about composition, lighting, focal points and background when taking their pictures. A real celebration of the beauty and diversity around us!
