TCV at the Park again!

Super day at the park.  TCV came again to Starbank today.  They dug over empty bedding borders, spread compost, weeded and did a marvellous job again!  Many thanks to Tim and all his team for their help.  They have made a big difference.hard at work the end of the day The park was looking good in the sunshine, with loads of colour and a few toadstools.IMG_0917 1 late sunflower IMG_0973 1IMG_0952fuschiaanenome

A big visit and damp gardening

Victoria Primary’s P2 classes visited the park this morning (with teachers).  It’s the first step towards the Friends and the School working together to build a children’s nature trail beside the Laverockbank Road entrance.  Very exciting!

It was a pretty dull and damp morning but there’s still lots of colour in the park. We even found time for some gardening before the rain came at 11.30, trimming the lavender bushes, preparing a boat planter for replanting and lots of tidying.IMG_0887 1 IMG_0893 1 IMG_0897 IMG_0900IMG_0891  IMG_0902
