Two new films have been created by Norfolk Wildlife Trust under our Watery Wildlife Project.
The aim of this project is to inspire local young people to learn about the watery wildlife in the Brecks, build confidence in teachers and group leaders to visit local wildlife sites with young people and to generally raise awareness in the Brecks Fen Edge and Rivers area of the designated wildlife sites and their importance. However, since the project started, working with schools and community groups has been challenging under the risks and restrictions of the covid pandemic. Both Wildlife Trusts have been running remote assemblies and creating online resources for use in the classroom but, now, Norfolk Wildlife Trust has partnered with Inspiring Norfolk to go even further and created to educational films.
Both films take a look at the unique habitat of Thompson Common and the wonderful, ice-age pingo ponds. You can watch both films below:
