The Lincoln High School Sustainability Council have devised over 10 craft activities and simple science experiments for our annual KidsFest Event. This craft morning is truly a community experience with the older students getting as much out of it through their organising and mentoring as the younger ones doing the activities and the learning.

We're excited to host a soil expert from Lincoln University, who will guide a hands-on activity. You'll gain the skills to understand and improve soil using simple tools that allow everyone to assess its health.
