The central piece of the garden is the Trinity Loop, which Barcelona based artist, Anaisa Franco, has been commissioned to create as part of the Percent For Art Project. We are delighted to be working with Anaisa and hope to have her stunning interactive piece installed later in the year.
Flowing from the Trinity Loop will be four separate areas: The Sensory Garden, The Outdoor Classroom, The Vegetable Garden and The Wild Willow Woodland. This is a very exciting project and will hopefully provide many years of fun and learning for the boys. Never before has there been more of a need for the boys to have access to quality outdoor education and adventure.
The garden project has developed from a plan that Sandra O’ Neill, a parent of one of our boys, created for us when we were initially looking for another space for the boys to enjoy. Having sown the seeds of creativity, Ms Rafferty, has developed Sandra’s plan to incorporate the Trinity Loop and four interconnecting spaces, in our very own natural wonderland.
Over the coming weeks and months we will be actively on the lookout for any sponsors or donors who would like to be associated with this amazing project. If you are in a position to do so, or know of someone who would, please do not hesitate to contact myself or Mr. Terry. We will also be in contact shortly with some fundraising ideas for our boys and their families.
Your continued support on initiatives such as this, is what makes them possible and gives your boys the best possible setting for their learning and wellbeing.
