Blue Spark Foundation

BlueSpark provided matched funding for St. Mary Magdalene C of E Primary School in Peckham in the London Borough of Southwark to create a working garden from an unused outdoor space for the benefit of both the school and the wider community. Children at the school now grow food and flowers as part of their outdoor learning experience. The school told BlueSpark that “We have created a special place for our children who have all become really enthusiastic gardeners. They have created a legacy for our future children by creating a space that can be passed on with love and care. We have also achieved Levels 1 to 4 in the RHS School Gardening Awards and Gold Awards for our bulbs and flowers from the London Children’s Flower Society. Our newly formed Garden Club attended the LCFS awards ceremony at London’s Guildhall. These new experiences have brought a lot of joy to our school community.”
