NatSalmo environmental education

How nice it is to get back to doing activities on the river all together!

Our Environmental Education team last April 29 was busy at the Sorgenti del Volturno with 43 children of the three middle classes of the Istituto Comprensivo Don Giulio Testa, Sesto Campano school.

A beautiful morning spent first illustrating the structures for the incubation of eggs and the temporary maintenance of wild Mediterranean trout reproducers, while an educational path was proposed to the children to discover the animal and plant biodiversity of the area, with reflections on the inclusion of anthropogenic activities in natural contexts.

The next day, however, with as many as 66 pupils from the elementary schools of the Comprehensive Don Giulio Testa di Venafro, our educators went to the naturalistic Oasis Le Mortine, where they told the children about the biodiversity of the Molise area through plant endemisms and of protected and rare animal species such as the Mediterranean trout and the otter.
