St Ethelwold’s Primary School’s vegetable patch project given boost from Dandy’s Topsoil May 14 2009 by Mark Dowling, Flintshire Chronicle
GREEN-FINGERED youngsters at a Flintshire primary school have received some help in the creation of their vegetable patch.
St Ethelwold’s Primary School deputy headteacher, Ann Lloyd-Jones, said: “It has been a wonderful start to our new gardening project.“Our caretaker, Clive Baines, built a vegetable patch and the topsoil – which is of high quality – came in one big sack on a crane and lorry.”Pupil Amy Leigh-Davies’s grandfather provided wood for the raised beds in the school’s garden. Both infant classes will head to Daleside garden centre in Hawarden tomorrow (Friday) to shop for vegetables they can grow. Mrs Lloyd-Jones added: “We’ll be getting potatoes, peas, carrots, and onions, with the aim of cooking them at the end for school meals". Dandys Assistant Manager Katie Whitfield said "We were delighted to help the children build their very own vegetable plot, some of the children came down to our headoffice at Chester to ask for the soil and after it was delivered we received a letter from every single member of the class thanking us for helping them, we'd just like to say that it was a pleasure!". |
Pupils of St Ethelwold’s Primary School in Shotton visited Dandy’s Topsoil in Sealand to ask for assistance with their garden project. And the firm dug deep, delivering three-quarters of a tonne of topsoil to the school.
