Seedlings Develop at Cathedral School Site

With primary aged Forest School school children and a small group of year sevens from the secondary school having completed the sowing of 4kg wildflower seed, we waited to see how the weather would help germination and the development of the plants. The first fortnight provided a perfect mix of warm sunshine and soaking rain – ideal. Then followed some better British summer. Would the young seedlings survive and thrive, or be wiped out by drown like conditions? We have had a look and are encouraged by their resilience. The seedlings are established, if a little patchy.
