Ways to get involved

How can members of our School community help?

• Choose a bulb with your child to bring to the bulb planting day – daffodils, tulips, crocus, snowdrops, Scylla, all welcome. Please remember what colour the flower is as we might plant a rainbow! Neal’s garden centre have a bulb pick and mix, and many supermarkets sell bulbs too.  Wyevale Garden Centre in Lower Morden has lots of bulbs and a soft play area.
• Donate a plant - these can be cuttings from your garden too.  Please see our Plants and Equipment Wishlist.
• Join in the class bench sponsorship fundraising challenge – see your class rep for details
• Help out with the watering rota – Tawny Hazelwood (Darwin Class Rep) coordinating
• Add to the compost: Put your uncooked fruit and veg peelings, used teabags and coffee grounds in the compost bin
• Talk to your child about gardening, growing and what they would like to grow here
• Get a Co-op membership card and nominate FOFW as your charity of choice.  New members can join from 21st September 2016
