LESSONS IN THE GARDEN FESTIVE NEWS • DECEMBER 2015 • PAGE 43 St Paul’s Primary School recently officially opened its new outdoor classroom – a garden where pupils will learn how the food mum cooks for them is grown. This is where youngsters will get their first experience of digging and planting – and finally harvesting the crop. Another successful community led project. The site was an overgrown wilderness hidden behind old Victorian buildings, but already the children have planted vegetables and will soon be harvesting them for sale to parents. They even have a few chickens. To help the pupils learn about the two world wars a ‘Dig for Victory’ garden has been created and will include an Anderson Shelter and an Air Raid Shelter. Also included is a sensory garden and one for herbs. M.O.T.
