What Kelsale Primary School learned about Galapagos
The children at Kelsale Primary School shared some fantastic letters and pictures with us after our recent visit...
GCT’s Andy Donnelly visited Years 5 and 6 at Kelsale Primary School last year to give a talk about the work that we are doing in Galapagos to tackle threats like marine plastic pollution and invasive species. The children then wrote letters and drew pictures for Andy sharing what they had learned. We enjoyed reading and looking at them so much, we just had to share them with our supporters!
