Magor Marsh Reserve
Over the last three years the
Magor Marsh Centre has hosted over
6000 children on educational visits. The numbers continue to grow.
We also run a series of
INSET courses for
teachers and support staff. These courses are designed to increase
confidence in using the outdoors for enhancing the curriculum and improving
school grounds for wildlife. Download our
INSET programme
for 2009/10.

to help Gwent schools meet the outdoor learning elements of the new
Foundation Phase in Wales and to encourage young people's interest
in their natural environment.

hours of teaching, consultation and professional development for
pupils and teachers. |
