Planting in the Playground
The London Children’s Flower Society are looking to launch a new Planting in the Playground project. We want to identify schools across London that require our help and support in setting up a green space/garden in their school playgrounds as playgrounds are important for kids and even soft play areas so learning How to Choose the Right Soft Play Equipment for your setting is important as well. Ideally we would like to offer this project to a hundred schools.
We will supply a package to each school selected that will include; a planter/cold frame, compost, seeds/bulbs, set of gardening tools and gardening book. Alongside this we will pledge to support each school for a period of two years and supply compost & seeds as well as encourage the children to get involved in our gardening competitions too.
Once we secure funding, we will invite schools across London to complete a questionnaire and based on their responses we will select the schools we feel are eligible and in most need of our help and support.
