A collaboration between Edinburgh's Thriving Green Spaces project and local schools has brought this wee idea into reality. The aim is for every learning community to have a wild space that they can use for enhancing learning. Whether that is surveying plants and animals for STEM or using the area to relax and "Take Notice" of nature, this project will give young people in Edinburgh the space to grow, learn and connect with nature.
Leith Primary and St Mary's have been involved in planting native tree species as well as surveying the area. By surveying current species schools will be able to measure impact of conservation work over time.
