Welcome to Mosaic, the CRT’s education programme for children. We are keen to share our nature friendly farming values with the younger generation, inspiring a lifelong love of the countryside and desire to nurture the biodiversity within it. We believe that wildlife, farming and the countryside need to fit together like a mosaic to thrive, working together in harmony, hence we created ‘Mosaic’ for children.
Here are a range of fun activities which you can do with your class, all connecting children with nature. So let’s get those imaginations running free outdoors, engage the senses and keep learning and exploring.
Enjoy these fun activities for your class, bringing children closer to nature both inside and outside the classroom.
