We are looking forward to a few busy weeks of planting at Fagley Primary (weather permitting).
On Tuesday, we received our first delivery from Morrisons following our successful Let's Grow campaign last autumn. Our delivery included two Bramley apple trees, two pear trees and some gooseberry, blueberry and raspberry bushes. Thank you so much to all the parents who sent in vouchers enabling us to acquire these new additions to our ever growing mini orchard. If you would like to be involved in helping the children to plant our new trees and bushes please let me know.
On Wednesday, a delivery or hedgerow plants (including holly, hazel and dogwood) arrived courtesy of the Woodland Trust. These plants are still very small and will require lots of care and attention, which I am sure our gardening team will be happy to provide. Our new hedgerow will provide a valuable habitat for the animals and birds with whom we share our school grounds.
Finally, on Friday three fig trees were delivered from Palmer's Plants (the suppliers of our impressive Christmas tree). These will be planted on Friday as part of our Jewish Faith Day.
