Learning outside creates wonderful opportunities for memorable, hands-on learning experiences by exploring the natural beauty around us.
Wessex Rivers Trust Workshops
Working in partnership with Wessex Rivers Trust we offer two workshops on rivers:
Chalk Investigation and River Invertebrates
River Features, Wildlife Walk and Water Saving Game.
Here at Winchester Cathedral we are the custodians of an incredible chalk stream in our grounds which supports a huge range of plants, invertebrates, fish and other wildlife. The Wessex Rivers Trust Education Team delivers and guides schools through these interactive sessions.
Did you know that there are only 200 chalk streams in the world and 170 of them are in the UK? We rely on chalk streams for drinking water and wildlife rely on chalk streams for their habitats.
More environment workshops are coming in 2026!
