Tree nursery opens doors to pupils at Prestatyn High School

PUPILS have been given a taste of a Denbighshire biodiversity initiative.

Prestatyn High School pupils recently visited Denbighshire County Council’s provenance tree nursery at Green Gates Farm, St Asaph.

The site aims to produce 5,000 native wildflower plants a year alongside 5,000 native trees and has been funded by Welsh Government, through the Local Nature Partnerships Cymru ENRaW project and Local Places for Nature grant.

Denbighshire’s biodiversity team gave the pupils a tour around the poly tunnels on site where the plants and trees are grown from seeds sourced across the county.

Pupils honoured for campaign work

Four amazing year 11 students were recognised at the North Wales Police and Crime Commissioner’s Community Awards ceremony, hosted last night and were honoured for their work on the Discrimination. It stops with me campaign.

 

These students have been striving to make our community a better place whilst at the same time as preparing for their GCSEs. They are dedicated and motivated to impact change. Working with these amazing students is an absolute privilege. We can't stress enough how brilliant these young people really are. They deserve recognition for their work and we are so proud of them. The local community should know what truly inspirational young people they are.

 

Well done to Ameera, Beth, Morgan and Karly for their achievements.
