by Educate Magazine September 18, 2024 · All News / Education News
Schools can discover what wildlife is hiding around their school sites by taking part in the Hidden Nature Challenge from the National Education Nature Park this October, and have the chance to win some outdoor learning prizes.
Schools, nurseries and colleges across England are invited to celebrate Hidden Nature Week (14 to 20 October) by taking part in a free digital activity called the Hidden Nature Challenge.
Launched in October 2023, over 3,000 education settings across England have already joined the Nature Park, which is being delivered by a partnership led by the Natural History Museum, working with the Royal Horticultural Society and other expert partners including Esri UK, and funded by the Department for Education as part of their sustainability and climate change strategy.
The giveaway is open to all education settings with a Department for Education URN in England. Just register for the Nature Park Programme here as ‘staff at a school college or nursery’ and participate in the Hidden Nature Challenge during week commencing 14 October 2024 to be automatically entered. Three winners will be chosen at random from those who enter and will receive a prize bundle with a retail value of £150.
Entries open 12.01am on 14 October 2024 and close at 11.59pm on 20 October 2024. Entrants must be aged 18+ to enter an education organisation. One entry is allowed per education organisation.
