Year 4 Habitats Visit

June 14, 2012
Year 4 thoroughly enjoyed exploring their local habitats during a trip to Hacton Lane Park on Thursday. They tested the chemical balance of the soil, hunted for dog rose and learnt how to identify a leech in the Ingrebourne Valley. Acidic grassland, hedgerows, ancient woodland and a river... Who would have thought there were so many hidden treasures to explore on our doorstep?
