The children spot a turtle in the grass on their way to their forest school site. The turtle generates a lot of excitement-'is it a snapping turtle'? 'what is she doing'? 'where are her eggs'? as well as some concern. The turtle is nesting in a busy traffic area with construction workers and lawn mowers that pass through. The children are worried about the turtle & take action! First they form a human chain around the turtle and discuss who can help? With some quick thinking the children and their educators make a visit to the Brock Environmental Sustainability Research Centre (ESRC). Thanks to the ESRC and Brock's maintenance department a barrier is placed around the turtle to protect her. It takes a community to protect the turtle and the children are happy to have some help! |
