Eco-Council Plants New Trees as part of Orchards for Schools Project

This week our Prep School Eco Councillors planted five new trees in the orchard. Thanks to the Tree Council, the school were able to apply for a free fruit tree pack. Our pack included 2 quince trees, 2 apple trees and a plum tree. Everyone got stuck in and learnt a lot about what trees need to survive.

We are looking forward to seeing the trees grow, and harvesting the fruit in future years. 

Orchards for Schools project provides free orchard tree and hedgerow packs to inspire teachers and pupils around the country to get outdoors connect, learn, plant and care for trees.
