It's Been A While....

The first day of winter?

Recycling the rain water!

Sitting in the story circle

Getting the chance to climb the tree now all the leaves have gone

The nursery love the labyrinth

I've not posted anything on the BLOG for quite a while. However, the time that's gone by has given everything in the garden a chance to settle...and grow! The children have been having a great time using the space. The P5s use it most days for their daily fitness and have also been out there with their rain gauges to measure how much rainfall we have had. Lots and lots is the answer to that one. Here are some of our most recent pictures.

More Beechgrove Magic

Here is another video of some of the work that went on to complete Room to Grow - or NEARLY complete it ....

They came, They Sowed, They Planted.

The last two weeks have been pretty hectic. There was a lot of work to do in preparation for the Beechgrove team's arrival at the end of August. Filming was from Aug 31st until September 3rd.

It was fun!

It was exciting!

It was exhausting!

Look at our first video montage to see how things went before, during and after filming.

Ross Contractors

Ross Contractors, who are based in East Calder, were on site today installing the play equipment supplied for us by Jupiter Play. The equipment looks stunning already so I can't wait until it is fully installed.

The boys from Ross Contractors worked really hard in horrible weather conditions. They'll be back again tomorrow to finish the job.

Bring on The Rifles!

Thank you to Ted Coxon for ensuring we had a good number of soldiers from 3Rifles working on the site today. Their presence ensured a huge amount of work was completed.








The boys take a well deserved rest and try out the new benches which have been built by A4e.

Fun In the Sun

It was a beautiful day so some of the pupils went outside to have a run round the maze and a dance on the stage!

Keep The Garden Tidy

Thanks to Edinburgh City Council who have donated a bin for our garden. That'll help us to keep the garden tidy!
