Education
The Education Group was formed in 2005 and offers support to schools undertaking garden projects. This support takes the form of visits to schools, grants of money and advice leaflets covering a wide range of topics. We have been able to help increasing numbers of schools and these encompass a wide age range and type of school.
Schools interested in obtaining more information about the SGT Education Grant scheme should apply to Mrs Sheila Rabson at rabsons@btinternet.com
Plastic Bottle Greenhouse at Holway School, Taunton
This is a particularly impressive project at Holway School in Taunton, which has a thriving garden club. The plastic bottle greenhouse involved the co-operation of pupils and parents to collect empty bottles, prepare them and finally attach them to a wooden frame. This is, of course, both innovative and cost-effective.
