Welcome to our Nature Website
Engage with Nature is a dynamic school and garden website designed and managed by Dúlra Éireann that will assist teachers, students and gardeners in creating a sustainable environment and combating climate change.
About engaging with nature
Engage with Nature website will make available month by month instructions and resources for working with the seasons by cultivating school gardens; creating habitats; exploring the environment and understanding our place in it. It is by learning to love the natural environment that pupils can be persuaded to change practice and to motivate the adults in their lives to do the same. It is also the key to personal wellbeing and to promoting positive climate change action.
