Park Junior School Eco Garden

Tom busy building the 'bug-friendly' gabion wall.

  I am a governor at my son's Junior School and have taken on the development of an Eco Garden as an aid to the teaching of science and nature at the school.  The garden includes a large pond with dipping platform, a solar fountain feeding a damp wall and streamway, recycled stone walls, standing log piles, bug habitat, nectar rich planting and a hide viewing a bird feeding area.  I’ve posted a couple of photos of the on-going work and I’ll put up some more as the garden progresses.
