Join us today and help make our garden a place for everyone to learn, connect, and thrive.
We are currently transforming the college garden from a slightly sad, unloved area into a vibrant, nature-rich space that all the college community can use and enjoy – for teaching, growing food, taking ‘time out’ and connecting with nature.
Building on the skeleton of an earlier garden, we have started off by focusing on reusing some of the existing raised beds to grow vegetables and creating a space for outdoor learning. Another area has been earmarked for the development of a small ‘food forest’. (A mix of shrubs and smaller plants, all of
which can be eaten.) Over time we’d like to plant other areas to encourage nature and provide spaces for people to sit and relax between lessons.
The aim is to create a space where everyone is welcome and there is always something happening. Throughout the year there will be opportunities to get involved in projects that help bring the garden to life and create a space that supports health, learning and community connection as well as into a
great place to relax between classes.
