An educational session on the preservation of Primula species richness

Orysia Krechko, a biology teacher at Turye-Remety Secondary School, recently organized and led a class focused on preserving the diversity of Primula species to coincide with the arrival of spring and the blooming of Red Book plant species. During the session, 7th-grade students were taught how to differentiate between various types of primroses, made a commitment not to pick them, as well as to share this knowledge with others.

Initially, the teacher discussed the reasons behind the disappearance of primroses and their essential role in the ecosystem, highlighting how each part of the plant serves specific functions and how disrupting these functions can lead to their demise. Together with the teacher, the students delved into these functions using different flora examples, revealing that the children had previously been unaware of this information and had unknowingly uprooted many flowers. After gaining a deeper understanding of primroses, the students collectively concluded that wild primroses are most captivating in their natural habitat. The children concluded by creating campaign posters supporting the protection of these delightful symbols of spring.

The event was held within the framework of cooperation between the Interreligious and Civil Environmental Forum of Eastern Europe (IRCEF) headed by Olexander Bokotey) and the German Nature Conservation Union (NABU BundesverbandNABU International), project coordinators  Ivan Tymofeiev (NABU), and Nataliya Kulya (IRCEF).
