Can you help?? - Junior Warden Garden.

Work has resumed on the Junior Warden garden in Manor Road, after delays due to weather and other problems, what had turned into a jungle is returning to a garden similar to last year!!The garden has been built from scratch with help from the local community and donations from companies.

We are trying to find a traditional style bird table which will be placed in the garden to encourage more wildlife, if any one can help us with this please use the 'contact us' link on this website - many thanks.

Plans are to introduce Hedgehog and insect houses in the future to further encourage wildlife and to teach the children the importance of caring for and observing living things as well as their natural environment.

We have a vegetable patch again and were pleased to find some wild poppys which we have kept! also the raspberrys are better established and we may get more than three raspberrys this year!

We have planted some more perennials to make the garden easier long term and have acquired a variety of plants from the 'freecycle' website and would like to thank all those who kindly donated them.

The garden has proved to be an excellent way to involve the children in improving their local area showing that they can make a difference to where they live whilst having fun.
