Glazebury's unstoppable children!

The Mersey Forest would like to congratulate the pupils at Glazebury Primary School for their hard work.

A parent and helper at Glazebury Primary School in Warrington contacted us last year to ask for a tree for a memorial garden in the school. It only took one site visit from The Mersey Forest Team for the whole school to gear themselves up for creating an orchard, hedge laying and planting the memorial tree, with the help of The Big Tree Plant.

Pupils from the school, including the infants, planted nine apple trees donated by and with help from the Cheshire Landscape Trust, along with approximately 60m of hedgerow with dogwood, hawthorn and blackthorn; a standard oak tree to complement the existing trees on the edge of the school field, and a copper beech tree in the memorial garden.

The enthusiastic children worked tirelessly, and didn't mind the rain or the mud! The sun came out later, and shone down on their newly planted trees.
