In June and July the park was visited by pupils from Eaton Valley Primary School, King George V Primary School, Phoenix Colliegate, Sandwell College, and Sandwell Visually Impaired. Richard the Park Ranger, Restoration Project Manager, John Satchwell, and members of the Friends Committee, have brought the visitors attention to flora and fauna, the history of the park and the restoration. The Primary School children were asked to produce poems, posters, or stories relating to respecting the park for display in the Park's notice boards. Do take a look at the wonderful work produced by the children, which will be changed regularly. Two examples feature below. It is good for the children to learn about enjoying and respecting the park, and the visually impaired enjoyed the park from a sensory aspect. |
