‘Bog Day Out’ to An Creagan

6th Jun 2026

To end a busy week, P6/7 enjoyed a very  informative visit to An Creagan.

Coinciding with our topic of ‘Going Green’, our knowledgeable guide Aidan shared with us the importance of our peatlands in Northern Ireland, especially telling us about the benefits of sphagnum moss in reducing carbon dioxide.

When out on the bog we then investigated the range of native species of plants in this area, along with finding some invertebrates too!

There are certainly lots of keen environmentalists and biologists amongst P6/7!
