Summer Gardening Day – June 2018

Summer Gardening Day – June 2018

A big thank you to everyone who turned out to the gardening day today. A huge effort was made by all to get all areas of the garden cleared, tidied and ready for the pupils to enjoy the summer days in!

Not only did all the gardening get done, but a huge step was taken to meeting the quota of hours required in order to receive funding for new forestry equipment for the garden! Here are a few pictures from the day:
