How we can help - Schools
The government promotes a number of school schemes such as Healthy Eating, Every Child Matters & Sustainable Schools. These schemes are complementary and have a number of overlapping themes. We support many of the themes through our activities and already work with schools to help them delivery to the requirements the government sets out.
Our organisation designs exciting and engaging outdoor activities for able children and those with special educational needs and all the activities are created to drive one of the three core aims below. Every school has different needs and we speciallise in offering a tailored service that enables your children to get the most out of the activities offered.
Inspire >>> Educate >>> Engage
Inspire, Motivate, Encourage Educate, Tutor, Inform Engage, Bond, Connect
We can help you in two ways. First we have a program that supports schools in creating "School Allotment Schemes" and we can help you in everything from giving advice to helping you build your allotment.
Secondly, our activities fall into the following areas all which map to many of the various government schemes. For more info on how they are directly applicable to a particular scheme or to learn more about the schemes themselves please have a look at the schools links under the schools menu above.

We provide schools external services and activities that support a number of the key school scheme themes. Each engagement is fully tailored to the schools and children's needs. Activities can range from full day to shorter craft sessions. All activities can be linked to other educational curriculum thus building and cross linked framework that feeds into subjects like Art, Cookery, Biology, Materials etc. For more information see the following
