Conservation is one of the curriculum enrichment activities available for fifth and sixth formers, and so far the group has built a pond and wildlife garden to increase the habitat variation on the city centre, they have built and erected twenty nest boxes within the school grounds and have undertaken coppicing and woodland improvement on a local nature reserve.

Currently the group of nine students are looking for further projects they could tackle on Friday afternoons, within walking distance of the city centre. If you have a suitable task for conservation volunteers, please contact John Taylor on 01432 363522.
