The St Madoc Centre Blog: Arts Week at St Madoc

http://stmadoccentre.blogspot.com/2014/10/arts-week-at-st-madoc.html

Wednesday, 22 October 2014. Arts Week at St Madoc. Last week we ran our first ever onsite Music and Art Week with Year 4 pupils from Clase Primary School. We had a great time coming up with some team names and mascots (the spiderpig was one of my favourites) and then building the mascots out of sand and scrap on the beach. Next day featured tracking animals in the woods and making some more unusual forest creatures of our own – here’s Blue Team’s great Man of the Woods:. We finished off the week by makin...

The St Madoc Centre Blog: August 2014

http://stmadoccentre.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Friday, 22 August 2014. Volunteers get stuck into bracken clearance. It's that time of year again! One of our biggest conservation tasks is controlling the bracken on our sand dunes. Each year we cut back the bracken at selected areas of the site. This encourages the rarer plants, including pyramidal orchids, and their associated insect life. The habitat enhancement should be well appreciated by the hundreds of school children who will join us on wildlife hunts on the sand dunes next year. The St Madoc C...

The St Madoc Centre Blog: Reptile survey yields loads of adders!

http://stmadoccentre.blogspot.com/2014/08/reptile-survey-yields-loads-of-adders.html

Thursday, 21 August 2014. Reptile survey yields loads of adders! The reptile population continues to thrive on our sand dunes. In our latest survey, we found nine adders and five slow worms. These normally elusive animals can be attracted by a piece of roofing felt, which creates a warm microclimate in which they like to shelter. Our ongoing program of habitat management benefits these animals by maintaining a varied habitat, with plenty of places to hide and open areas for basking and hunting.

The St Madoc Centre Blog: February 2012

http://stmadoccentre.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 28 February 2012. A job done properly is a job well done? It really wasn't an. As you may have gather from Nathan’s last blog post, I have spent the last 4-5weeks carrying out most of the maintenance on the building… from changing light bulbs to fixing door handles to poly-filling…. Now after a month and a bit of running round like a loon I can look back at all my effort and say that. I'm pleased with what I have done. The building looks great, possibly the best. The deadline that is the beginni...

The St Madoc Centre Blog: What's been happening: Autumn

http://stmadoccentre.blogspot.com/2013/11/whats-been-happening-autumn.html

Tuesday, 5 November 2013. What's been happening: Autumn. When the St Madoc Centre started to offer activities and catering to schools in 2009 our school season consisted of one full week. This year’s school season was somewhat longer, with 26 schools and classes enjoying our food, accommodation and activities. That’s over a thousand pupils, from infants to college age - not forgetting their hard-working teachers! This year we’ve also spent a lot of time working on a science programme, aimed at year...

Thursday, 20 March 2014. St Madoc Winter Bird Walk – 08/03/1. We booked the nice weather for our winter bird walk – our first wildlife event of the year - and it arrived just on time! Our nine guests were able to appreciate our grounds in their full splendour, with stunning views across the estuary and as far as Worms Head and Llanelli. A good time was had by all, and we increased our appreciation of this unique angle on Gower and its birdlife. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Or find us on Facebook.
