Wild World Heroes challenges

You will find here all about the summer reading challenges and how to engage in this exciting work!

Further information

Over the summer holidays we featured 6 challenges linked to the 6 animals that we selected. They were

  • Week 1 - bees and pollinators
  • Week 2 - polar bears and climate change
  • Week 3 - Sparrows and wildlife gardens
  • Week 4 - Marine turtles and plastic pollution
  • Week 5 - Hedgehogs and litter
  • Week 6 - Orangutans and palm oil

Below you will find the short introductions to each animal and an activity to participate in (and at the very bottom the challenge activity). We'd love to hear how you got on!  Tag us on Twitter @EcoSchoolsLCC and Facebook.
