For Teachers.

As you know there are hundreds of ways the garden can be a useful tool in educating our children. Not only as a venue outside the classroom walls, but used as a catalyst for teaching all subjects of the arts and sciences. If you need some inspiration and ideas how to incorporate our garden into your teaching, please browse through our Curriculum Resources and Projects pages.

A big THANK YOU!

Picture
As you can imagine we have a lot of people to thank helping us establish and maintain our garden. Not least the children who are diligently helping it grow, but the teachers and volunteers who help run and maintain the garden and the children! the local organizations who help us push ahead with major projects and local businesses who donate money, time or materials to help us out. A really big thank you to everyone.
