Chalk stream education on the River Ver
In partnership with the Ver Valley Society, we’ve collaborated with five schools in St Albans this academic year.
Our education team visits these schools to deliver presentations, providing students with insights into chalk streams, the geography and history of the Ver River, and the challenges it encounters. Additionally, students have the opportunity to explore the river firsthand as it flows through Verulamium Park. This location not only facilitates the study of human impact on chalk streams but also offers ample opportunities to observe diverse wildlife, including invertebrates, fish, and water birds.
