We have a very good relationship with the four primary schools which are closest to South Park Gardens. We are devising a number of educational projects with the schools including a Victorians project and involvement with the Local History Project.

The schools will be bringing pupils in to visit the new mini-beast sanctuary and will be using the new ‘open-air classroom’ under the cedar tree in the northeast corner of the Gardens.

Schools Plant Trees

We were delighted to welcome pupils from the four closest primary schools – The Priory, Holy Trinity, St Mary’s and Pelham – to the Gardens to each plant a commemorative tree. The four trees – Silver Maple – Acer Sacchirinum (Holy Trinity); Purple Leaf Flowering Plum - Prunus Cerasifera ‘Nigra’ (St Mary’s); Japanese Crab Apple – Malus Floribunda (The Priory) and Hupeh Crab Apple – Malus Hupehensis (Pelham), will have plaques to identify them. We will be giving each school updates on the progress of their tree and are hoping that the pupils will make regular visits to see them growing.
