Wild about Woodlands
As part of this year's Wildlife Week, we are excited to announce for the second year running a part funded 6-day Forest School programme for ages 5-9.
With thanks to the Youth Commission for Guernsey and Alderney, along with sponsorship from island resident Robin Whicker, our very own Forest School Leader is inviting Alderney’s young people to journey into the trees settling beneath the Sycamore canopy to explore and discover Alderney’s woodland. To gain all of the benefits that come with Forest School, this programme is designed to practise a variety of activities each day, building on skills throughout the week, before a celebratory ceremony on the 6th day.

Daddy longlegs
Flitting about the house in summer, the gangly, brown daddy longlegs is familiar to many of us. They are a valuable food source for many birds.
Nightingale
The melodious song of the nightingale is the most likely sign of this bird being about. Shy and secretive, it sings from dense scrub and woodland, day and night.
Dunnock
The shy dunnock can be seen hopping about under hedges as its other name, 'hedge sparrow', suggests. It inhabits gardens, woodlands, hedgerows and parks.

Yellow wagtail
The yellow wagtail can be spotted running about, chasing insects on lowland damp marshes and meadows during summer. As its name suggests, it does wag its tail!
