We took one outside space at the side of the school, listened to a talk on garden design by Milan, a parent in the school, and set to work. This is the result, a collection of garden designs that would make most garden designers proud. Not only are they colourful and show great resourcefulness, they also show evidence of a lot of thinking, planning, researching, and a great deal of hard work. Some reflect the wishes of their creators (in one design the space is taken over entirely by a football pitch!), others display the talents of a garden designer and have created a space that could well become our school garden in the future. For some of the younger children in particular, a space to play and climb was important, and those elements were incorporated, while for older children it provided an opportunity to develop their IT skills; the gardens created in Minecraft show a great proficiency in the programme. We could be tempted to overlook the 2D drawings, but the judges didn’t as they made particular mention of the level of detail that went into some of these drawings. It would be unfair to pick out just some of the entries, so here they all are in a slideshow giving you a chance to appreciate the talent of these young garden designers.
Please be patient as some of the pictures take a few moments to load.
