Take Learning Outdoors in Chelmsford Parks
Our parks are the perfect classroom! Teachers and students can connect with nature through hands-on activities like bulb planting, young tree (whip) planting, wildflower plug planting, and meadow habitat surveys.
Sessions are free, inclusive, and led by our Parks Volunteer Leader and Green Spaces Team. Whenever possible, we’ll host them in a park near your school or college – making outdoor learning easy and accessible.
Ideal for schools, colleges, youth groups and Duke of Edinburgh participants, these practical horticultural activities suit all ages and include inclusive options for people with different physical and learning abilities. They offer real-world experience, boost environmental, plant and pollinator awareness, and can even inspire future careers.
