Jim Grogan Countryside and Wildlife Award - 2015

The 2015 Award, the fifth, has been presented to Owen Blockley.

On Tuesday, July 14th, 2015 the whole of Tarvin Primary School assembled in the woodland for the annual presentation. The headmaster, Andrew Davies, started by saying how useful the woodland is as a resource for the school and also thanked the trustees for all the work they do to develop and maintain the woodland.  The award selection process had involved input from both teachers and parents so that both in school and out of school activities were considered.  The decision process had not been easy but one person had stood out as this year’s winner.

He announced that Owen Blockley of year 6 was the winner for 2015 and read out the citation that had been fixed into the commemorative book that is on permanent display in the school’s entrance hall.  Owen has a wide interest in wildlife as well as practical experience with farm ponds and uses his artistic skills to draw much of what he has seen.

Stuart Exell, Chairman of the Trustees, presented Owen with his certificate, a commemorative plaque and a book token.
