SCHOOL children have taken part in a protest against Oxford North, the huge new housing and science centre development in the city. Last week, the kids from Wolvercote School spent an afternoon studying wildlife on fields next to where the development is taking place, as a part of a protest. They collected bugs, watched rabbits and walked along the hedgerows on fields next to the site of Oxford North. When finished, the huge new development could have as many as 480 homes, and office and lab space with enough room for 4,000 jobs. There are also plans for new green open spaces within the development.
