Who this task will support
St Peter Chanel Primary School
At St Peter Chanel, every child is seen, known and valued. We recognise that each child is unique, and we pride ourselves on providing a caring, happy and welcoming environment where pupils feel safe, confident and inspired to achieve their best. We work in close partnership with families and our parish community, believing that strong relationships between home, school and church are the foundation of a child’s success.

Pupils in the Air Pollution Team at St Peter Chanel Primary School have put a grant from the Growing Together Trust to good use, buying shrubs and flowers to help improve air quality around their school.

Now they need a few extra pairs of hands to get everything planted, and that's where we come in!

🎯The task

We'll be joining the pupils and teachers to plant a selection of hardy shrubs, lavender and grasses in several raised planters along the road outside the school. A lovely opportunity to get our hands dirty and help make the school surroundings greener!

Please bring gardening gloves 🧤. All other equipment will be provided.

We'll be working alongside the pupils, with teachers always on hand to supervise. You don't need DBS clearance to take part.

📍Where and when

We'll meet headteacher Mr Davies at the school reception at 1.30pm.

The address is St Peter Chanel Primary School, Baugh Road, Foots Cray, Sidcup, Kent DA14 5ED.

The task is listed for 90 minutes, but there's no obligation to stay for the whole session.
