Bluebell wood for St David's

Pupils at Ysgol Bro Dewi in St David's are planning to create a bluebell wood, as part of their work for their bronze Sustainable Schools Award.
Councillor Huw George, Cabinet Member for Children, Young People, Learning and the Welsh Language, presented them with the award at a special assembly recently.
The project 'How Green is our School?' enabled pupils to investigate ways of making the school more environmentally friendly.
The Eco Team purchased pans for use in sinks to save water, while younger pupils grew vegetables in an African Bag Garden. Nature walks and studying the rainforest led to the plans to plant a native bluebell wood.
"The Sustainable Schools project is a vital tool in enthusing and inspiring pupils to take an active role in protecting and enhancing their environment," said Sharon Osborne, deputy head teacher.
"Because of the project, pupils are now more appreciative of the fact that they are actually able to make a difference!"
The Pembrokeshire Sustainable Schools Award recognises efforts to improve the environment and quality of life now without damaging the planet for future generations.
