One of our former pupils, Dylan Ayling, was a keen Green Ambassador and gardener. In fact he was so keen on the natural world that his dad (a paramedic) told a colleague, Brian Miller, about our work at Wicor to inspire the next generation of naturalists. Brian heads up the regional NHS green team which aims to green NHS premises across the south. Brian visited our school a few months ago and was impressed with our environmental work and he thought it would be a valuable opportunity to offer to donate some trees to the school and give a hand in planting them too.
So, with the help of some Year 1 pupils we planted six native trees: field maple (x2), black poplar, guelder rose, hornbeam and small-leaved lime.

A big thank you must go to the NHS for the very kind donation of 6 native trees.
