The P7 leavers of 2021 gifted us a Cherry  Blossom tree to plant in our school ground. One of the parents has been looking after it for us until it was a suitable time to plant it.

This is how the eco group planted this blossom tree. First they dug a hole 50cm wide and 27cm deep. It was very rocky and took lots of effort to dig out. Next they put the tree in and put some soil back in.They also put in manure to help make it grow. Then Mrs Jahn  and Mrs Redman put some support pieces of wood next to the tree and zip tied the tree to the wood. Finally they made a border of rocks around the tree so that the grass would not take the nutrients  from the tree.

We are all looking forward to see the new flowers on the tree and are excited to see it grow.
