The sensory garden and all the tubs & baskets are loving this warm wet weather. Everything is lush and looking beautiful 😍

The Garden Club did a great job weeding around the new fruit trees. The new fence for the apple trees still isn't in but like British Rail, "We're getting there!" Most of the wood has been salvaged and prep'd, it just needs assembling 🪚

Our latest Tesco grant delivery is two new sheds! 🔵
These again need assembling but first the old ones need to be emptied and dismantled so this is probably a job for the summer holidays 😊

🌼Grandparents Day 2026 🌼

Despite the weather not being entirely favourable we managed to get out and enjoy the garden with some of the Year 1 children and their grandparents today. Planting, watering, exploring and taste testing the strawberries 🍓

They have all been amazing and our garden is now shining with colourful tubs, baskets and planters. Thank you so much to everyone who joined us, it was lovely to see you all 😊

This afternoon more Grandparents will be in class baking crumbles using fruit harvested from the garden. You know where I am if you need a taster 😋😁

The Gardening Club did a great job weeding some of the raised beds today. This weather is making everything grow whether we want it or not!

The Garden Display from the Hinckley BID garden show is looking fantastic and is flowering, don't forget to stop and have a look next time you're passing 😊

Everything is ready for Grandparents Day tomorrow but as usual the weather forecast is looking a bit dodgy 😬 I'm crossing my fingers that it's wrong 😂

I hope you all enjoyed the glorious half-term weather 😎

Today I've been sieving our homemade compost, 8 wheelbarrow loads later and I'm halfway 😂

We're preparing for Grandparents Day later in the week so we're keeping everything crossed for good weather🤞🏻

The wildflowers look amazing 😍 and the bees are having a wonderful time 🐝

Today has been so productive thanks to all the children who have joined me in the garden 😊

Year 6 came down and worked like troopers weeding, sweeping and litter picking. They have planted some beautiful begonias under the new fruit trees, made bug hotels and planted salad cress to take home 🌱

Garden Club watered everything then cleared out two planters in the sensory garden ready to be replanted. Lastly they potted up some beautiful tubs for a shot of colour 🌼

It's done 😀
The "Jack and the Beanstalk" recycled edible garden that the children have worked so hard on is now on display!

If you get a chance to visit the town this weekend there are some fantastic garden displays on show.
You can vote for your favourite school garden, swap plants for new ones and enjoy the entertainment 😊

Special thanks go to Mr Fellows for providing transportation to the site 🚐

A massive thank you as always goes to Mrs Pickering for being a true garden advocate, always supporting my mad schemes and all the work that goes on in the garden 🤗
