Memorial Garden News - lots of people chipping in to help in different ways.


Pupils have continued to work hard in the Memorial Garden.  Our focus right now is to put edging round all the paths that Craig laid for us. 
Ian our woodworking technician cut the timbers down for us...
...Dougal helps carry the them to the garden.
Huge thanks to John of Buchan Timber for donating the wooden stakes used as pegs to hold everything in place. 
Accurate work is required to get it just perfect! 
Our faithful volunteer Liz comes in to help!
Pupils continue to rake and collect stones as the soil is very poor.
Talking of stones - this Friday is due to be our BIG DIG DAY!  S5 pupils are getting sponsored to clear as many stones as possible in a full day of work.  If you can, please help by donating to help us buy gabions to put the stones into.  If you are in the area on Friday, please pass by to cheer the boys on too!
Garden designer Jo Evans came in to see progress and is managing to source plants and possibly more materials for us so thank you to her too 😊
Pupils working with Mrs Kershaw have also been busy and creative
These plaques will look lovely in the garden.

Thank you to all these lovely folk helping in so many different ways - it is great to see real progress for our Memorial Garden space.
