“Every child I have asked has been full of enthusiasm about your visit into their class. Both teachers and pupils have enjoyed the format of the sessions, the verbal and hands on, all of which have extended their knowledge of these animals and how they can help animals all over the world and especially those in their environment. Children have told me it was “10/10”, “A-star (A*)” and “The best thing ever!”, all of which I feel needed to be shared with you.”

Carla Cox
Head Teacher, Wistow Parochial CofE Primary School

“It is just a joy to fund projects like this that make such a lasting difference. The energy and enthusiasm of the staff and volunteers of Project: WILD has made everything such a growing success that we’re now talking to them about “we need more and we want it now”. Brilliant!”

Chris Hailey-Norris
Development Officer, Selby District Eastern CEF

“Absolutely brilliant. Really engaging delivery of sessions and also assemblies. Our students have really benefitted from this. We would love to do more work with you! Thanks so much Nick.”

David Sladen
Head of Geography, Barlby High School

“The length of the session allowed us to be fully engrossed. The variety of activities was superb, I loved that we each whittled our own wooden spoon & then used it for a meal we helped to prepare! Learning new skills – how to cook food without the need to build a large fire (sardined in tins!). We also learned how to make a carrier for fire wood, using chunky sticks and paracord!”

“I’ve had a wonderful day. We’ve walked the woodland, collected branches and kindling. Lit fires, made bread dough and cooked it on sticks over the fire. Cooked sardines in their tin. Whittled spoons to eat our tea with, walked the wild meadow and prepared and cooked tea. We came away shattered, dirty and smelly but thoroughly satisfied and happy with our day. Thank you so much for organising it.“
