APS Gardening

We really enjoyed having a stall at the garden party today, we have been working hard in gardening club to grow a range of plants to sell alongside seeds and plant markers. It was lovely to see our gardening club members selling things on the stall putting our learning about money into action…

Gardening club are all set up and ready to welcome you to the garden party

We are so lucky to have had a donation of gardening supplies from Morrisons Penrith, Home Bargains and Down to Earth to help our growing endeavours. Well done to gardening club for writing such persuasive letters.

We were delighted to be awarded not only a level 2 but also a level 3 RHS gardening award. The award is testament to the hard work the children have put in form our initial request that came from the children themselves to do more gardening in school after they were so enthused with our plants topic to the resilience they showed when some of our plants did not thrive and problem solving to make our outside area look better and better each year. We can’t wait to carry on our gardening journey and now that we have a gardening club up and running we are sure that our growing efforts will go from strength to strength.

A huge thankyou to everyone who has donated plants and seeds for us to use – our school community is always such a great support and we are extremely grateful!

Today in gardening club we have worked together to write some letters to garden centres in the local community to ask if they would consider donating some resources to our newly formed gardening club. We have our fingers crossed that they may beable to assist us and also have some fundraising…

Our gardening club is now up and running!

The children in Cross Fell really enjoyed their growing topic, so much so that they requested more opportunities to learn about plants and get out into our outdoor classroom to do more gardening- in response to this our gardening club was created!
