Green Schools had an exciting morning learning about the ecology of Bushy Park and attending a tree planting ceremony. This was an engaging initiative organised by the Department of Heritage, Culture and the Gaeltacht and Dublin City Council. Students completed an ecological survey of the woodland. They also got to meet Minister Madigan to plant a Sessile Oak in Bushy Park. This was a wonderful opportunity to learn all about the importance of Irish woodland and biodiversity.
