Christmas Gifts and some Great News!

Jacob and Harrison delivered our "Gifts for Gardeners" boxes to staff who had put in orders.
We "recycled, reused" where possible and included a hand made ceramic coaster, mug and tea/biscuit for busy gardeners to enjoy along with plant labels, gloves, pencil, twine and lots of our own harvested seeds (we hope some of them germinate!).  A huge thank you to all that bought a box!

In other exciting news, we have recently been judged "Joint NATIONAL Winner" by Keep Scotland Beautiful, for their "Involving Children and Young People" discretionary award.  Well done to everyone past and present who has worked in the garden to help us reach this point.  This is fabulous recognition of all we have achieved and I'm very proud of you all!


Have a wonderful holiday, and I look forward to seeing you all in the New Year!

"sNOw" reason not to be in the garden!


 Just before the school closed early due to snow on Tuesday, the EAGer Bunch were out in the garden for lunch.  It was like a snow cave in the polytunnel class-room!
We turned the RIDAN hot composter to keep it going...
...then had some fun, building our own snowman!
It even helped us sweep the snow 😂😂
