Pond Dipping Adventure Unveils Hidden Treasures at Meltham Mills Dam
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from 1990, we witness the sheer excitement and curiosity of four young pupils from Sheepridges Ashbrow Junior School as they embark on a pond dipping expedition. Meet Marcus Bennett, Jason Swales, Sabrina Barrett, and Matthew Crowther – these enthusiastic explorers are about to discover the wonders that lie beneath the surface of Meltham Mills dam. Equipped with an outdoor classroom provided by Meltham County Primary School, these budding scientists have been given a unique opportunity to delve into field study and environmental projects. As part of their educational journey, they are encouraged to investigate the vibrant ecosystem thriving in their own backyard. Meltham village's picturesque surroundings serve as an ideal backdrop for this immersive learning experience. The inviting pond teems with life waiting to be discovered by eager minds. From tiny aquatic creatures to fascinating plant species, every dip of their nets promises new insights into nature's intricate web. The success of this initiative has prompted other schools in West Yorkshire to follow suit and utilize Meltham County Primary School's exceptional facilities. By studying not only pond wildlife but also exploring the enchanting moorland surrounding them, students gain a deeper understanding of their environment while fostering a sense of stewardship for our precious natural resources. This nostalgic snapshot serves as a testament to the power of hands-on education and highlights how even small-scale initiatives can ignite lifelong passions for conservation
