The Eco-group donned their wellies and gardening gloves this afternoon and went down to the school field with their spades and trowels. Hilary from the Friends of Dorrington Woods joined us there to show us how to plant different types of saplings - potted and bare-rooted ones. We planted approximately 65 trees then protected them by adding tree guards around them. A big thank you is due to Hilary, along with Mr Long and Mrs Cocker who came along to help us too.
