Early years staff at High School Yards Nursery School, inspired by their children's interest in some stripy caterpillars they found, began an environmental project which now provides the basis for activities and ideas in 'The Wee Green School Pack'.
Originally launched in 1993, the free pack has been republished with sponsorship from the Royal Mail and Scottish National Heritage. It is distributed via Scotland's school grounds charity, Grounds for Learning.
The guide aims to show how a wildlife garden can be created with a little imagination in even the smallest outdoor space and with few resources. It includes details of High School Yard's experiences and activities to help other children learn about wildlife and growing and planting in the nursery garden.
