At the Assumption Junior School we are very lucky to have a beautiful enclosed garden in the heart of our school. 

This garden is used for many science studies and investigations.  Our garden enables us to look closely at mini beasts and birds.  It also lets us keep a close eye on the development of frogs in our school pond.

As well as wildlife and insects, we have fruit, vegetables and many different types of trees and plants growing there.

Garden Projects

Mary got some pumpkin seeds and planted them in our school garden. She planted them in a corner of our enclosed garden, outside room 7. She brought the pumpkin seeds into our classes to show us how small the plants are.  
They should be just right in time for Halloween!

We made flower baskets for

Garden News

We had some visitors to our school garden...
April 2015

We were amazed at what we found when we came to school on the 29th of April. We found a duck and her 11 little ducklings waddling around our school garden. 

This annual visitor to our school had laid her eggs in a nest in our garden. 

All 11 eggs hatched into beautiful little ducklings.
