Join the Hidden Nature Challenge!

Uncover the wildlife hiding around your school site by taking part in the Hidden Nature Challenge!

The Hidden Nature Challenge is a 20-minute activity from the National Education Nature Park programme that gets children and young people outside and exploring their outdoor spaces.

And... from 14-20 October 2024, it's Hidden Nature Week! During this time, if you're registered for the Nature Park programme and take part in the Hidden Nature Challenge, you'll have the chance to win some amazing outdoor learning prizes!  

It’s a great way to get started on your Nature Park journey or kick off a new year of the programme in your school, nursery or college.

Go outside, follow the prompts, and upload your discoveries to see them on a map alongside everyone else’s findings across the country!
