The Gardening Club
- Holtspur Primary School
Holtspur School has finally dried out after the torrential rain and we managed
to snatch a rare dry day during the half term to get together and dig over all
54 trees in our orchard. We are extremely lucky at Holtspur School to have
such supportive parents and staff and they make a huge difference to us so
thank you, you made what could have been a lot of hard work into a very
enjoyable day. Our pond is doing very well, as you can see. The frogs have
been extremely busy and obviously loving their new home, thank you Daisy in
Year 3. Our next project is a very important one and I am especially proud to
be part of it. We are going to sow
our own Flanders Field here at
Holtspur School to commemorate
the centenary of the Great War.
50,000 Flanders Poppies will
be sown by children, staff and
parents around the orchard
and field of the school which,
when they flower in June/July,
will hopefully create a beautiful
memorial and one that in years to
come the children will remember
creating.
Till next time. Laura Barton
