The music students @SirJohnLemanHS who recorded the 2020 Broads Album received their gold disks yesterday - assuring us it was the best of early Christmas presents!! The disks acknowledge all the hard work they put into composing and performing the songs. @Broads_LPS@MuseumWind
Our first rat caught on the camera traps we loan to schools! @RocklandSurlin1 also got shots of squirrel, magpie, pigeon and a very happy cat eating all the food laid down as bait๐ @Broads_LPS@BroadsNP
Working well, one of the windmills built as part of our in school Water, Mills and Marshes Wind Power Workshop. Thanks @PfieldPrimary Year 5 for a great couple of days! @Broads_LPS
Had a great couple of days last week building windmills at Pakefield Primary with the future's budding engineers! Lots of fun changing the number of sails to increase or reduce power. One mill managed to lift nine 2p coins up to the desk! @Broads_LPS@NfkWindmills@MuseumWind
Fun with Year 4 at Roman Hill Primary exploring how plants float to get sunlight and sink to escape frosts! Fun Fact: water crickets use a soapy substance to break the water tension and glide motionless towards their prey? Copied using cotton buds, soap and card @Broads_LPS
Check out our top three spooky trails to do this Halloween, with spine chilling stories along the way, we wouldn't advise going alone! Here be tales of ghosts, ghouls and witches in the Broads National Park.. Check them out here ๐๐ป๐บ https://t.co/i4SJqsu0mx @Weird_Norfolk
In school @RocklandSurlin1 exploring the amazing adaptations of the plants and animals in the dykes @BroadsNP. Everyone had fun getting things to sink and float, discovering how surface tension works and the ways animals take advantage of it. @Broads_LPS https://t.co/J2TnBuMxJE
Schools have been having fun with the WMM camera traps this last month. They got shots of deer, rabbits, magpies and foxes. WMM Camera Trap shot of the month goes to Yr 4 at North Denes Primary School for their footage of a fox marking its territory! @Broads_LPS@BroadsNP

Wonderful to be back in schools running workshops on Wind Power and Aquatic Adaptations in the Broads National Park. Lots of hands on activities to keep everyone busy from experiments investigating surface tension to building working mills. @Broads_LPS@BroadsNP
Take a look at our latest film made in conjunction with the @MuseumWind It's about the hard life that marshmen had to endure in Norfolk and Suffolk before technology and industrial progress changed all our lives. @Broads_LPS@BroadsNP
