My parents say they will help and want to know whether electric power tools would be useful, if so which ones.

Stuart Scott and I will be able to help. We have previously built raised beds using sleepers and are both very keen gardeners. We will bring some of our kids to help depending on commitments.

Would just like to say a massive thanks for all the hard work everyone done today! Great team effort from all and I think the outcome is fantastic so far. Was nice to work alongside the teachers also, something which the Gardens Dept would love to do in the future. Thanks again, parents and students! you all worked great as a team.

The garden is really starting too look good. It was great to get so much achieved today. We can now start to think about which plants we would like to grow.

Well done to Miss Nugent for organising such a GREAT working party on Saturday (10th November) Like Steven & Sam I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to work with others in the School community. I'm also looking forward to seeing the garden grow. Keep up the good work.
