Community Recycle Scheme

We’re looking to add some shade to our seating areas and grounds. We’ve been in contact with a great scheme to support schools across the communities.

This new scheme donates a collection of second-hand, overstocked and end-of-line equipment to schools in the UK. A wide range of items has already been given away, including shade sails, post pad protectors and colourful fence pales. The full range of items can be viewed online, where requests can also be submitted. Several companies are involved with this initiative, including A&S Landscape a supplier of retractable roof canopies.

With their support, schools are able to update and provide their staff and pupils with something new. A little makes a big difference!

Garden Makeover

Over the last seven weeks we have been working hard to create a lovely sensory garden for our infant school children following the tough year they have had, to help provide a calming sensory place for them to go when they feel the need. We have refreshed the Early Years outside area, redesigned the allotment, created construction zones and uplifted the Year 1 and 2’s outside area.

We now have many mini projects on the go as we try to provide our children with somewhere to enjoy at different stages of their day.

As you can see from the photos, we have transformed and created some wonderful areas with the support of various companies and with the monies raised by our families.

We would like to invite you to look at a wish list we have created to help us finalise some of these projects. A selection of these items are from companies who have supported our work, helping us create what we have achieved so far. Their generosity has been overwhelming and we therefore would appreciate you using these companies as a thank you for their help towards our projects.

Feel free to share the links with friends and family.

Thank you for your continued support.
