Thanks to another generous donation of saplings from #WoodlandTrust, our pupils have been working towards their #EcoSchools award by planting more hedging to encourage more biodiversity into our outside space.
The first crops have also been planted! Peas and carrots which the pupils have germinated have grown beautiful little leaves and are safe and snug in their new home with plenty of rich soil to encourage them to grow. We can’t wait for some tasty results!
Also, the pupils have decided that they do not have enough time to keep up with all the gardening and organising so have decided to dedicate some of their break time once a week to either building our greenhouse or working out in the garden (depending on the weather).
We have also submitted out application to the Royal Horticultural Society to try and secure funding so we can purchase tools and equipment to support us in our efforts to improve our sustainability and encourage more wildlife around our beautiful grounds!
Keep an eye on news next week about the Big Plastic Count 2024!
