Here are some photos of the school gardens, I am hoping to inspire some budding gardeners! Can anyone with some spare time to help grow, sow, plant out and water please inform reception so that FOBS can organise the help that is needed. It maybe just 10 minutes after school, but that will help.
This season we will be helping Class 1 with their growing project, raised bed close to the classroom and vegetable garden, near the gate. Planting some more “sea blue” plants in the seascape plot. Growing lots in the poly tunnel, and filling the two raised beds with produce for use in the school kitchen, or to be eaten straight from the plant. And possibly have a Pumpkin Patch again. The children had fun last year, hopefully we can organise some more interesting projects this growing season.
Also, any donations of plants surplus to your requirements will be most welcome.
