CHIZHOU, Nov. 21 (Xinhua) -- Maotan Primary School is adjacent to the Shibasuo provincial nature reserve. The reserve boasts abundant wildlife resources and protects mainly wintering waterfowl such as storks and geese, as well as the wetland ecosystem. It serves as a unique "nature classroom" for the school, especially in wetland conservation education.
For years, the school has integrated wetland protection education into its daily teaching. Volunteers are invited to the school for wetland science popularization, and students are frequently organized for study tours in the wetlands. This teaching approach has deepened the children's understanding of wetland conservation.
