4th and 5th class in Timoleague Educational Garden

30th Jan 2026

It has been a busy season in our educational garden as the 4th and 5th Class pupils have been hard at work maintaining our Hugelkultur beds.

For those who haven't seen it in action, Hugelkultur is a sustainable gardening technique that uses decaying wood and organic matter to create self-fertilizing, water-retentive mounds. It’s a hands-on way for our pupils to learn about decomposition, soil health, and the lifecycle of a garden.

Thanks once again to Yvonne for involving the pupils and all her help in maintaining our gardens.
