Have our Wild School Roadshow visit your school for the day! Our Roadshow has been designed to provide a unique and inspiring outdoor learning opportunity right in your school grounds. Our inspirational staff will lead fun, wild sessions educating your students on the importance, diversity and amazing wildlife of Birmingham and the Black Country.How does it work?Typically we would come to your school for a day, setting up in your school ground and starting off with a morning assembly introducing the wildlife of Birmingham and the Black Country. We can work with up to 4 classes throughout the day and even a half hour session for a younger audience. You can decide which theme you would like to make up your day. We may be able to adapt our sessions for your specific needs, please discuss this when making your booking.

We believe Forest School is an invaluable experience for students, equally we understand the pressures schools face which make training teachers and freeing classroom time difficult. Our expert educators can deliver high quality sessions on site or at one of our local reserves. Learning is child led so all sessions will be different depending on where the students’ imaginations and interests take them...“No one will protect what they don’t care about; and no one will care about what they have never experienced.”Sir David Attenborough

Green your school grounds.

From wild gardens to mini meadows, bug hotels to forest school areas and outdoor classrooms, we are experts in enhancing outdoor spaces so wildlife, and children, can thrive.

Imagination, natural materials and a little bit of decorative chainsaw work combine to make shelters, raised beds and seating for everyday use while our pond creation, bird and bat boxes, hedgehog hotels and wild gardens encourage wildlife to visit.

Even small spaces can be filled with wildlife with a little creativity and a lot of enthusiasm!

saved from development following a huge public campaign, the site became a nature reserve and supports a tremendous range of plants, animals and insects. Especially fascinating are the gnarled old trees and the fantastic displays of bluebells each spring.
Moseley Bog was the childhood playground of The Lord of the Rings author JRR Tolkien, who lived nearby. He stated that the site inspired the 'old forest' in his books. People come from all over the world to discover his inspiration for themselves.
The site also has great archaeological interest, having two burnt mounds, as well as more recent remains such as the old mill dam and the foundations of Victorian greenhouses.

Our Education Team is passionate about outdoor learning and using nature to improve our children’s resilience and mental well-being.

We know you know getting outside is important for development - we also know you're under pressure. We're here to help! Our expert educators love getting muddy and hunting for minibeasts, putting the 'cool' into creepy crawlies and the 'wow' into wildlife.Please browse through our services and contact us on 0121 523 0094 or info@bbcwildlife.org.uk if you'd like to discuss any option further.
