Introduction


Welcome to our High Woods blog! ^^


This blog is the result of being asked to make a creative geography presentation on our chosen subject.

What We're Trying To Find Out 

Our task was to find out about the wildlife at High Woods and the conservation efforts that are going towards it. We hope that you find it informative, not just our class and teacher. ^^

High Woods

High Woods Country Park is one of Colchester's  natural places to walk and relax. The Country Park includes peaceful woodland, open spaces (ideal for picnics) a lake and many meadows. Along with marshy areas, hayfields and shrubland, High Woods provides the right habitat for thousands of different animals. The welcoming approach to visitors and creative management of the park has lead to High Woods holding the prestigious Green Flag Award since 2004. All in all, a place not to be missed by walkers, cyclists and families alike.
