Our planning

Sara told us a lot about the history of Seven Acres.

Studying the map of the river and collecting samples of the wildlife and plant life in the river.

We would record our evidence by writing about it, by taking photos and videos, by visiting Seven Acres, Bolton Museum, Mostly by experience – field trip to Middlewood.

We wanted to find out how Seven Acres has changed over time so we looked at 6 different areas & researched them.

We were looking what is in the river and collecting samples. We made notes of all the different insects and bugs we found.
