Who this task will support
Sunnyhill Primary school veg garden resurrection!
Sunnyhill Primary has lovely outdoor spaces all around a stunning building of character and history, but some of the spaces are not being used to their full potential or need some additional care. The school also wants to use outdoor lessons to give additional support to children needing connection with nature in these stressful times and has a small fund to help make this happen. The existing veg area has fallen into disuse because it lacks adequate planters for growing produce well and needs a better layout so staff can monitor effectively as they work with the children. The school is keen to reinvigorate its veg growing programme and have learning and growing sessions for key stage groups and ideally a gardening club. With the clearance work started with parent volunteers Sprout Up Schools has donated their design time to the project to re-imagine the space. Sprout Up Schools have got materials donated from Chelsea flower show, Conran shop and from Sprout Up's main business designing and building private gardens. These are all now at the front of the school and with a contractor lining up to do the skilled carpentry we need to move all the pieces into place!

Goodgym have been called to help finish this garden. It's all done, we just have a tonne of compost and a tonne of bark to shift from the front of the school to the back.

Due to the distance from Papa's we WILL NOT BE MEETING THERE this week but on Streatham Hill Opposite the Station Please check the location carefully on the description.

Perfect GG Lift n Shift so what are you waiting for get signed up now!
