Gardens are a fantastic learning resource. SallyAnn works with your school to harness that potential. Her workshops are designed to engage and inform pupils in a practical, hands-on way, using the garden to explore a range of topics that link directly to multiple strands of the post-primary curricula.

Setting up or using an existing garden space to deliver workshops, teach basic gardening skills that include garden design, soil health, propagation, grow your own food, creating natural organic plant food and compost, all while supporting students to engage with the natural world around them.

How to create/enhance the school garden as a space that encourages biodiversity. Harnessing the characteristics of the site, prevailing conditions and the local environment, we will learn about site orientation, wind, soil conditions and how to successfully grow your own edible and ornamental plants while simultaneously encouraging and enhancing biodiversity around the school. We’ll also explore the benefits of native planting and its role in supporting biodiversity.

A workshop delving into the incredible hidden properties of some of our most common plants. We will highlight how plants were used by our ancestors for a wide range of applications over the ages, and how they remain vital to this day. Engaging all five senses, we discover how plants help support our health and wellbeing.
