How can you help? - Friends of Sutton Lower School

There are so many ways you can help us help the school and at the same time have some fun!

Gardening project

One of the ways you can help create an even better school environment for our children at Sutton is to support the gardening project run by one of our lovely Larch Class mums'. The best way to support the project is to donate something from the list available below. Please see some of the pictures of the garden as it was and as it is now (below) and click on the image above to go to a study by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) on the benefits of gardening for children.

Why am I doing this?

Educational, follows the schools values and will hopefully provide a sanctuary for the children
Attract wildlife, help with current climate issues
Add texture, smell and colour
Add a pretty garden for all to enjoy all year round
I love gardening, I am passionate about this project and teaching children to love their world, love being outdoors, care for the planet, care for the animals and plants in it
Its excellent for anyone who is having a bad day to raise their spirits

How can you help?

If you can donate anything from the list (click button below to view) that would be great
Alternatively please feel free to donate cash

All donations (cash or physical) to be given to the school office and marked ‘Garden Project’

What does the garden look like now?
