Planting for our future
The small copse plot in the school playground includes species such as Guelder Rose and Elder. These were added to enhance emotional wellbeing as both species provide vibrant autumnal colours and blossom. These trees will also add aesthetic appeal to the outdoor break area for both teachers and pupils.
The remaining plots surrounding the school were created using species such as Blackthorn, Hawthorn, Lime, Pedunculate/Sessile Oak, Beech, Hornbeam, Silver/Downy Birch, Aspen, Holly, Wild/Bird Cherry, Guelder Rose and Elder.
These species have also been used particularly to reduce noise and air pollution from the neighbouring motorway. With species such as Holly, Blackthorn, Beech and many more being included to increase security for the school.
