7 brilliant GoodGymmers headed to Woodthorpe Primary School (many post-parkrun and breakfast) to help develop their outdoor learning area.
Some pesky (and frustratingly hardy) nettles had returned since the last GoodGym visit so we focussed on deep digging of roots (where possible). For some (mostly David and Leanne), this involved some impressive mattock-wielding that yielded some equally impressive (and sometimes huge) roots.
The rest of used spades and forks and spent a happy hour digging weeds.
There's more to be done so I'm sure we'll be back!
