Festival: Bird Love Day
February 14, 2025 Kettle and Crow Forest School becomes aflutter with excitement for Bird Love Day. Celebrated amidst the quiet chill of winter, this day allows us to turn our focus to the feathery creatures that flutter around our school grounds, reminding us of nature's resilience.
Bird Love Day, historically believed to mark the start of birds' mating season, influences many expressions of love and companionship we use today. We'll explore these fascinating ties, enriching our students' appreciation for both our natural world and cultural history.
The day will be filled with engaging, bird-centered activities. Our students will have the opportunity to create feeders and shelters from natural materials, nurturing their compassion and reinforcing the importance of supporting wildlife during winter.
In the spirit of Valentine's Day, students will craft bird-themed Valentine's cards, connecting our celebration of human love with our appreciation for nature. The day's activities will underscore our commitment to fostering a sense of respect and care for all creatures.
We encourage each student to bring a snack for sharing during our celebration, and if possible, a small bird-friendly offering like seeds or dried fruits.
Mark your calendars for this exciting celebration of Bird Love Day at Kettle and Crow Forest School, a day of love, learning, and laughter, as we honor our feathered friends and the history that ties us together.
