Welcome

You are very welcome to the 'Biodiversity in Schools' website. Our aim is to teach young people all across Ireland about biodiversity and get them actively involved in nature conservation. We are the leading biodiversity education organisation in Ireland specifically for young people.
 
You will find everything you need to boost biodiversity at your school on this website. As with everything we do we aim to keep things simple and fun - with a hefty dollop of science!

​Learn about what you can do in our School Projects section, find classroom and garden resources in our Teaching Resources section and learn more about biodiversity in our basic Biodiversity Facts section. We are also available to visit your school to help, so check out our Book a Workshop section to see the range of options. We can even help Design Your School Garden. Make sure to sign up to our Newsletter and follow us on Facebook and Twitter for more help and ideas!

​School Projects

​​How can you boost the biodiversity at your school? We have put together a collection of fun and simple actions you can take to help a wide variety of wildlife. The actions are divided into various categories and include lesson plans, instructions, resources and ideas. Don’t forget to check back regularly as we add more throughout the seasons.
