| AFTER SCHOOL: Jessica Hyde-White, 11, Gawain Morris, 11, and Sam Merchant, 11, put their carpentry skills to the test |
KIDS mustered their carpentry skills to build bird tables in Swanley.
The 11-12 year-olds at Swanley Secondary School, St Mary's Road, built the tables at an after-school club after learning about the kinds of birds they could expect to see in the area.
The environmental after-school club is funded by the Single Regeneration Budget Challenge Fund and Groundwork assists with club activities.
Groundwork's education officer Fiona White said: “The club has got off to a fantastic start and is proving to be very popular.
The students put a lot of effort into creating the bird tables, which will provide an ideal opportunity to experience local wildlife first hand.”
