School students made 6 nesting boxes from fir wood, on International Bird Day and Global Earth Day they will put these nesting boxes into the trees near the school. It is great that our school also contributed to and participated in the campaign, taking care of the environment and the smaller inhabitants of the earth, human friends - birds.
