Morecambe primary school's pioneering eco-garden set to open

Sandylands Primary School pupils are ready to open their new eco-garden

Green-fingered children will welcome the community to the opening of a new eco-garden at a Morecambe primary school.

Sandylands Primary School's new inclusive, sensory eco-garden will be opened by the Mayor of Lancaster on Tuesday May 5 and everyone is invited.

The garden is the brainchild of the pupils themselves.

Converting unused ground behind their Balmoral Road buildings into a pupil-designed and led community eco-garden for outdoor connection, inspiration, education and wellbeing has been made possible through £47,000 investment from West End Morecambe Big Local (WEM), a resident-led community partnership working to tackle local issues and improve the area through collaborative action. 

Garden Opening Day activities will run all day with pre-schoolers and parents from 9.15am to 10.30am. Pupils, parents, families and everyone warmly welcome to come and visit from 3.30pm.
