Far Forest Lea Memorial CE Primary School pupils are preparing for this year’s Bewdley in Bloom competition taking place on the 16th and 17th July.
Children from every class had the opportunity to don gloves and get planting. Organised and supported by the school’s PTA, the plants now look amazing, dotted throughout the school’s grounds.
Headteacher, Mrs Tara Collins-Bullock, stated: “Can I just thank everyone for helping make entering Bewdley in Bloom such a successful fun event for the children. They thoroughly enjoyed deciding where the plants should go and working with children from different classes to create their own individual floral works of art.”
Before planting began, grandparent, Mrs Sandra Edwards, spent time at the school speaking to the children about different plants and discussing with them their planting plan of action.
Mrs Collins-Bullock added: “Class teachers and pupils have each created their own watering rotas. Every class decided what type of garden they wished to make, even creating a beautiful butterfly garden, with gardens proudly displaying their own unique signs kindly created by parent Sid Jones, indicting which garden area of planting was done by which class.”
The school has entered 4 categories: groups, tubs, vegetable garden and whole school.
