School gardening sessions are back up and running at St Mary’s Primary in RBKC! Thanks to the amazing school caretaker who watered the beds over the summer, there is a glut of #raspberries that staff and pupils have been enjoying!

Our #summer #playscheme for under 12s, in collaboration with @urbanwiselondon , has been so much fun this year! We have been running a limited number of #natureplay sessions for local families at our sites: Ravenscourt Park Glasshouses and Phoenix Farm in White City. Each week we have delivered a range of activities such as making and testing sailboats using recycled materials, making miniature dinosaur and fairy gardens and journey sticks!
We still have a few spaces for our sessions at Ravenscourt Park Glasshouses this Thursday 20th August and we have a special #beehive #demonstration by @beesandrefugees in the morning session!! Due to Covid19, we can now only accept pre-bookings. If you would like to book a place please DM us or email info@hcga.org.uk
Here are the ‘after’ photos of the new #beefriendly #plantingscheme on the Terrace on Ten @245hammersmith ! It was a long, HOT day of gardening but we got it done in the end! 📸 credit: @tektamu
