Today, Portpatrick primary school pupils enthusiastically rolled up their sleeves for a hands-on mulching project in the school orchard. Equipped with shovels, wheelbarrows, and gloves, the children worked together to spread organic mulch around the plants. The activity not only helped to enrich the soil and suppress weeds but also taught pupils the importance of sustainable gardening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through this practical experience, the children learned about improving plant health and conserving moisture, linking the project to their science curriculum on ecosystems. The children showed great teamwork and effort, and everyone was eager to contribute. Well done everyone and thanks very mulch to Norvel Dampney who assisted the children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
