Lowfield Timber Frames have been supporting the pupils at Sir Alexander Fleming Primary School since September 2022. They approached us with a request to use any off-cuts of timber we may have to enable the pupils to build an outdoor area at their school. Since then they have kept us updated with all their great projects with links to their website and photographs.
Today the school contacted us with more updates and the exciting news below:
“I’ve received this exciting email off the Royal Horticultural Society today 😊. I entered the RHS School Gardening Team of the Year 2023 competition a few weeks ago, in recognition of the hard work the children have put into helping establish our outdoor spaces. I am very pleased to announce we have reached the top 10 finalists for the competition nationally! We now have to send in a video to show off our lovely achievements to a celebrity gardening panel for the final round of judging. Two winners will be chosen from the shortlist of ten and notified towards the end of May. Whether we do get one of the two top spots or not, to have reached this far is a massive achievement for our school and I just want to say thank you so much for your help and support with our projects. It really is much appreciated, and we are so glad you have helped us on our journey and adventures so far,
Thank you and best wishes”
Just a couple of examples of the work they have been doing can be seen here:
