P7 Showcase their Gardening Skills

3rd May 2024

This week our green-fingered Primary 7 children showcased their gardening skills and planted a wide variety of flowers and shrubs to enhance our school environment. 

The children have really enjoyed connecting with nature and taking their learning outdoors! 

Gardening is a great way of bringing the curriculum alive, it helps to get children outdoors in the fresh air and improves their wellbeing.

We started with a patch of grass just over two years ago and have built and improved our sensory garden and school grounds with help from pupils, their families, our parent support group and the wider local community.

Our garden is a fantastic resource to enhance classroom based activities in all areas of learning, as well as a lovely opportunity for children to care for a green space and observe nature.
