Photos of Park View Academy handing over their bird and bat boxes to the Friends of Downhills Park and parks staff.Downhills Park is flapping with birds and bats thanks to the efforts of pupils from the local secondary school Park View Academy.
The school-children worked with BTCV (British Trust of Conservation Volunteers) to hand-craft bird nest boxes and bat roost boxes during their woodwork classes, the different designs will attract pipistrelle bats and birds such as blue tits and robins who's natural habitats are in decline. The pupils handed over the 30 boxes to Friends of Downhills Park and parks services during a ceremony.
