Biodiversity Week

May 2022. Students go out on Biodiversity Week to list all types of living things they can find.

We did it!  We broke the Village School Biodiversity List record.  We found 240 different types of living things.  Thank you to all who joined in this community effort.  Students provided lists which were compiled.  There are some determined nature explorers out there.  We found many interesting plants and animals.  The list of birds was long and detailed.  We listed a number of plants that haven’t noted before.  The students used very descriptive words, when they didn’t know the common name of a plant, fungi or animal.   This record will be hard to break when we resume doing the count all in one day, but it will be fun to try.
