Winter planting
Eco Clubbers were out in force this week - planting!
They planted garlic for an early crop in Spring in the Windmill Lane Eco Club raised bed, while the sixth formers at Imberhorne Lane were heralding the arrival of hedges, given to us free as part of the Woodland Trust Trees for Schools initiative. The hedges include around a dozen saplings in bundles and include a mixture of Dog Rose, Halel, Rowan, Crab apple, Holly, Hawthorn and Goat Willow. We are hardening the plants off outside the Chemistry block until we find the right spot to plant them. Keep your eye out for a "growth spurt" from a planted sapling some time next term.
