In honour of National Children’s Gardening Week, which is taking place from Saturday 27th May to Sunday 4th June, Allison Homes Central has donated wildflower seed packets and children’s gardening tools to two primary schools in Lincolnshire.
Corby Glen Community Primary School, near to Allison Homes’ The Orchards development, and Kirton Lindsey Primary School, local to the housebuilder’s Tudor Reach site, each received 50 wildflower seed packets and two gardening tool kits, to encourage the pupils to learn a new skill and enjoy spending time in the school gardens.
Natalie Willcock, Headteacher at Corby Glen Community Primary School, said: “National Children’s Gardening Week is a fantastic way for us to inspire a love of gardening amongst our pupils. The seed packets and tools from Allison Homes have come at a perfect time as we have just started our very own gardening club, so this will be a brilliant project for the children.”
Andrew Marshall, Headteacher at Kirton Lindsey Primary School, said: “We are very grateful to have received this donation from Allison Homes. The children are excited to use their gardening kits and plant the seeds in our EYFS outdoor area. We would like to thank Allison Homes for celebrating National Children’s Gardening Week with us and supporting our project to improve the EYFS outdoor area.”
Mallory Matthew, Sales Manager at Allison Homes Central, said: “Supporting the local community is a huge part of our ethos at Allison Homes, so when we heard about National Children’s Gardening Week we knew we had to get involved.
“This is a wonderful event, encouraging children to get outside and hopefully discover a new hobby. We are delighted to have made these donations to help pupils grow their very own wildflower gardens, and can’t wait to see the finished results.”
Allison Homes’ The Orchards development is an idyllic collection of two, three and four bedroom energy efficient homes, and Tudor Reach consists of one, two, three, four and five bedroom homes in the heart of the Lincolnshire countryside.
