For this year's October half term, children were invited to join us for autumnal fun at the Gardens which included crown and bookmark making, face painting and a scavenger hunt. Although the weather wasn't great, we still had a good turn out and all children took home their own pumpkin to carve.

A round up of the year by the garden team.
As a thank you to all of our wonderful interns who have worked with us this year, the garden team hosted a weekend of activities at the gardens.
I will be looking out for this class session with my grandchildren next year. Many thanks.
