Inspired by Mrs Laundon; The Garden of Hope.
We are delighted to have funded Phase One of a special sensory and wellbeing garden inspired by the life and service of Mrs Laundon, part of our EYFS team for many years. It will be a safe and relaxing environment, in which children and adults alike can sit and enjoy the quiet, surrounded by plants that appeal to all of the senses. Your donations will help to fund the vision for Phase Two of this project, which will see paving added, a further weather sail, and an item of special interest, which is still to be decided.
CCS Friends will be running a variety of fundraising activities to support this.
We appreciate any one off donations to this wonderful project.
