We’ve made the final join for our classroom so everything is stitched together securely now and hopefully watertight.

Many thanks to Sue for the delivery of bat and bird boxes, more executive housing for our wildlife🤗

The twins came out for a little frolic, ran around me for about half an hour, so cute!

We have had two of our Princes Trust youngsters working on the reserve for the last two weeks as work experience. They have been reed cutting, painting, building steps, unloading paving stones and helping build our artificial badger set.

The lesser spotted daughter was glimpsed briefly at the reserve, I snapped a quick picture of this rare sighting. Planting wildflower seeds at the entrance with mum.

I visited IMMI (local firm) to give a presentation to the workforce about the nature reserve. They have a community program that helps local good causes with employees give paid time off to help. I am hopeful that they will be able to provide some help. Fingers crossed!

Our portacabin classroom was craned in yesterday, very exciting. It’s not fully together yet but it’s here which is the main thing.

Thanks to John Bell and Anthony Toole for helping with the move, and also Ross Blackburn and his crew.

After many many hours work we are all set for our classroom to be craned in tomorrow, I just hope all our measurements are correct 😱

Many thanks to Heighley Gate (WyeVale Garden Centres) for their donation of some wildflower seeds and a couple of bags of bird feed. I now need to work out how to get my wildflower meadow up and running😜
