Goodgym Islington were invited back to Beacon High School on the Hilltop estate to help with their ongoing garden renovation. These flower beds are have become overgrown and full of weeds (mixed in between nasturtiums and other sturdy plants), and our task was to clear the space as best we could. Multiple wheel barrows of green weeds, sticks and rubbish (protractors, compasses and various school items!) was gathered from the bed, sorted and deposited at a dedicated composting spot. The next stage would be to lay some new soil, ready for the students to plant their own flowers.
