In P4 and P5 the Woodland Trust came to visit us and told us about making an orchard in Bellsquarry. We have been designing our dream orchard and thought about what we wanted to see. We were consulted about what we wanted in the orchard and where it could be. We also got to see and try some of the foods we could grow. Our work will be on display at the community meeting on Monday 6th April, 6.30pm – 7.30pm in the village hall. The Woodland Trust will visit us again before the summer to let us know if it is going to go ahead and if it is then we will be involved in planning and planting! Parents can contribute to the consultation about the orchard by completing the survey at www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/bellsquarry-survey
