End Of Term 2:

The Green Team (Sustainability club)  – shrub planting 

On a sunny late autumn day members of the The Green Team planted a variety of shrubs adjacent to the technology buildings.  

Students were engaged with every aspect of the panting: digging the space, separating the roots of pot-bound plants, fertilizing the hole, planting the shrub, then watering the plant. As the soil was rock-hard the students used a machine to loosen it before planting.         

We look forward to watching our shrubs grow over the coming months. 

This planting will not only beautify our school but also help mitigate some of the destructive effects of rising temperatures and climate change.
