The artwork was based on the habitats and species the children had explored during Blackdown Hills Natural Futures’ environmental education sessions, such as pond dipping, moth identification, bird box and bat box making, and mini ‘bioblitz’ events.

Some of the children’s artworks were combined into striking large-scale art panels which were exhibited at the Blackdowns Healthy Living Centre in Hemyock.

The primary schools involved in the art project were All Saints, Awliscombe, Broadhembury, Buckland St Mary, Culmstock, Hemyock, Kentisbeare, Membury, Stockland and Upottery.
