Report written by Jenna Drury (she /her)
The magnificent 7 met at the school gates and looked pretty dodgy, loitering around and 'dealing' in banana bread and strong tea. Refueled, we were briefed to clear out the dead material from 2 borders and 4 planters , at the reception of the school. Just one question - how do you tell what's dead and what's alive?! With the usual GG garden knowledge we set to, pulling out what we thought had died off, plus the weeds and soggy leaves. Amy W helped us out with her superior plant wisdom:
'It looks weed-ish!'
Nicki and Michael did a great job of scooping out some soupy pot gloop , and re-homing 2 plants. Just like Alan Titchmarsh and his team, we sprinkled wood chip between all the remaining plants and everything looked champion.
Hope the school give us an A* on Monday morning!
The mission of the school is to provide children and young people who have Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs with a high quality education, positive opportunities to succeed and improved life skills to increase their chances of returning to mainstream school and contributing to their wider community in a constructive and sustainable manner.
