Build a Hedgehog House

Build a hedgehog house, take a picture and send in to [email protected] for the chance of winning a camera trap.

NPG are a small group of students from Ilfracombe Academy that are wanting to make a difference in animal conservation. We are passionate about all aspects of nature and by raising awareness of hedgehog vulnerability, we can encourage local communities to play their part in helping the hedgehog population.

NPG's aim is to raise enough money to build and distribute hedgehog houses across North Devon. We want to secure animal camera traps close to these houses so we can research and observe the hedgehogs' activities.

Please read the attached document for more information on how to build a hedgehog house and more.

Learning outdoors offers so many new and exciting opportunities for pupils and can be even more powerful when teachers explore how to include the five senses in key learning activities. This article explores some ways in which the senses can be incorporated into lessons, both in and out of the classroom.
