Welcombe Hills School MoveForward Project - Week 1

We enjoyed a brilliant first Nature Positive session with Welcombe Hills sixth form at Stratford Sports Club. After a quick briefing and introduction to the 12-week programme, the group grabbed their gardening gloves and tools and got stuck into their horticultural tasks of the day.

They did a fantastic job planting up the living walls with succulents, adding colourful plants to the wooden planters and trimming the hedges around the cricket pitch.

Whilst at the sports club we also took a tour of the grounds with the groundskeeping apprentice Alexia, to talk about careers, volunteering and sporting opportunities they provide, which was food for thought for the whole group.
