WETLANDS

Our wetland aims to encourage fauna to the area through the careful selection of flora and the planning and construction of the wetland itself. The school will conduct surveys of the fauna that use our wetlands, however we are specifically interested in the following as they have been specifically targetted as desirable to our wetland and our studies. The flora is listed under the reasons for its selection for our wetland. Scientific names are also presented with their more common name.
