Day trips for school classes
Experience, understand and shape nature
Our day trips for school classes offer direct, hands-on access to nature. For one day, students work together with experts from the Nature Network in a real nature conservation project – from maintenance work in meadows and forests to the promotion of amphibians, insects and rare plants.
The classes experience valuable learning moments outdoors and discover ecological connections directly through their own actions. All day trips combine practical nature conservation, accessible environmental education, and concrete contributions to biodiversity, and are aligned with Curriculum 21.

Past events
Trail maintenance in the Ticino autumn forest
Restoring paths together, stacking stones, clearing leaves – and then roasting chestnuts over a fire: The school class from Ticino experienced a day where work, play, and nature went hand in hand. A day in the forest that brought people together – and clearly brought joy to everyone.
A snake for biodiversity
Loaded with 600 roof tiles, we headed to the Looren School in Maur. There, a motivated class created a biodiversity hotspot in the shape of a brick snake. Bricks were laid, 22 tons of gravel were shoveled, and the figure was planted with wild perennials and grasses. The snake now provides a home for reptiles and wild bees—a project full of dedication and success! 🌿
With heart and hand to a vibrant school grounds
A week brimming with energy and enthusiasm: The 6th grade class at Weinberg-Turner School created shelters for bats, hedgehogs, and antlions. Each exciting project was documented by the film crew and presented in an impressive final film. Through play and engagement, the children experienced firsthand how biodiversity develops and transformed their school grounds into a vibrant habitat. Proud and motivated, they made a tangible statement about nature, teamwork, and responsibility. A truly memorable highlight to end the school year!
A hedge with impact
Ende Mai packten die engagierten Schüler:innen der Kanti Rychenberg in Winterthur kräftig mit an. Im Rahmen des Impact Days von myblueplanet widmeten sie sich dem Bau einer Benjeshecke und schufen geschützte Unterschlüpfe für Igel. Mit Ästen, Sträuchern und viel Teamgeist entstanden wertvolle Strukturen, die Tieren neuen Lebensraum bieten. Ein erfolgreicher Tag, der zeigt: Jeder Einsatz zählt für die Natur!
With saw and pruning shears to the Wiesel Villa
In the mixed September weather, a class from Reinach, Canton of Basel-Landschaft, cuts its way through the willow islands in the Robenhauserried fen. Drop by drop of sweat, the moor is saved from bush encroachment over the course of a week. Fortified with mushroom nuggets, the young architects create new habitats for weasels and other wildlife.🐹🐇
New color for the Sihlwald
Colorful diversity in the Sihlwald forest! Eight school classes from Muri, with great team spirit, created new habitats for butterflies and orchids. They even discovered the rare door snail—a complete success for nature! 🌸🦋
