A group of young children gathered to explore and engage in the great outdoors.

Young Rangers, a wildlife club for eight to 11-year-olds, lets children get up close to nature and explore the great outdoors.

At a session at Sutton Courtenay Environmental Education Centre, a group took part in fun games and activities to learn more about the natural world and wildlife including insects, plants, birds and mammals.

Organiser Anne Jackson took the youngsters on a journey of discovery around the beautiful nature reserve with woodland, meadows and ponds in Milton Park in Didcot.

A statement from Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wildlife Trust said: “Run by our trained and experienced learning team, the days are packed with wildlife-themed games, activities and exploration, helping the children to connect with the amazing world around us.”
