Getting there

For this session we're going to meet at the task, so you'll need to make your own way there. We encourage you to walk, run, or cycle to do so!

    About this session

    The Garden Classroom run weekly Forest School sessions in the garden at Argyle Primary School in Islington, giving essential outdoor play-based provision to the children. The garden has a central green space and surrounding raised beds, a range of fruit trees and some overgrown areas.

    The garden has huge potential to be an even better space for the children and would hugely benefit from weeding in two overgrown areas, one to the left by raised beds and one area at the back of the garden. Especially as there is no other weekly maintenance/gardener onsite, this has been an ongoing challenge to get completed.

    This would be incredible as then the children attending sessions could fully enjoy the garden, get the most from their sessions and also plant and grow vegetables.

    Forest School Leader Eden will be on hand to coordinate the session.
