PCADA was able to hire ecologist and ornithologist Michael Bell to bring the school children from 4^th 5^th and 6^th class in Parke National School on a nature walk in peatlands inCunnigar More National Heritage Area (NHA). A fantastic day out that will be repeated, it was the source of some wonderful artwork for a competition run with support from Regina and the staff in the school. View the pictures and drawings in the Gallery.

The children in Parke National School produces these art works after a great day out with Michael Bell in the Cunnigar Mor National Heritage Area.
