A fruitful week for St Benedict’s

12/3/2020

 
Following on from the planting of hundreds of bulbs to create a natural meadow area on their school field in the Autumn, children, staff and parents from St Benedict's RC Primary School in Handforth have again donned their wellies and gardening gloves to plant 13 fruit trees and 60 Leylandii trees on their school field.

The planting project has been initiated by Handforth Woodland Group, a motivated team of Handforth residents, who have come together to plant trees and shrubs all over Handforth in a bid to reduce the carbon from the atmosphere and offset the carbon dioxide we are putting into it. :: Read More ::

Friends of Handforth Station have this year called upon St Benedict's Catholic Primary School to design and create a vibrant art display to bring colour to the station at night time over the Christmas period.

Children in the Reception class have been busy creating three colourful stained-glass effect Christmas windows to light up the station's 'Art in a Box' displays during the evenings. The theme behind this year's display is 'Children preparing for Christmas'.
