On Friday, 3 September, Crocworld Conservation Centre in Scottburgh teamed up with Pennington Conservancy for an important educational collaboration at The Beach Café. Children from Pennington Pre-primary School were invited to learn all about the importance of trees in celebration of Arbor Week (1 to 7 September). They enjoyed informative talks on insects, planted some seeds and ended off with some popcorn and soft-serve ice cream. Crocworld Conservation Centre Manager,
James Wittstock, extended his appreciation to Pennington Conservancy, saying this was a great initiative: “It’s essential that the younger generation form a real connection with nature, and understand, from an early age, the importance of the plant and animal kingdom. Through talks like these, we’re able to foster a lifelong love for conservation that will serve to protect all our planet’s inhabitants.” Crocworld Conservation Centre runs a number of educational programmes throughout the year, including the monthly Bushbabies talks.
