Our First Year @Reaseheath students dismantled a redundant pheasant pen within an #ancientwoodland this week. They systematically recycled as many materials as possible: great job! #sustainability @NationalGamekee @BASCnews #gamekeepers #biodiversity #ecosystemrestoration
ALT Tidy work: Tristan and Iwan salvaging tensioning wire.
ALT Students carefully collected up everything that cold possibly re-used: fox guards, stakes, wire and plastic netting, staples and more.
