Our next meeting is on Sunday 23rd June,starting at 2pm at the Lincolnshire Rural activity Centre at Kenwick.
We will be visiting the meadow area and arranging some fun activities there, including the Magnificent Meadows Activity sheet.
We are excited to be taking part in the LoveLincsPlants project to collect and preserve Lincolnshire plants for the Joseph Banks Institute and the Natural History Museum collections. So we will chose and collect two samples from each of two species growing there.
The children can also collect a flower and a leaf from other plants growing in the same area.
We can also look for butterflies and other insects in the meadow.
Back in the classroom we will start the process of pressing the flowers, which can then be mounted at a later meeting.
We will also have magnifiers and the digital microscope in the classroom so that the children can look more closely at things they might find.
We will meet in the LRAC car park, Kenwick Hill Louth LN11 8NR
(There is a shared entrance with Kenwick Park Leisure Centre, Continue straight on and turn right after the overflow car park)
Children must be accompanied by an adult.
