St Benedicts Primary School

Peter Dowd MP recently visited St Benedicts Catholic Primary School to help the children in their efforts to create a wildflower meadow.

Peter Dowd said: “It was a real pleasure to visit school and help out with creating the wildflower meadow. The children have been brilliant in making this project happen and it really is young people who are leading the way locally in terms creating wildflower meadows for us all to enjoy.”

These meadows contribute fantastically to biodiversity, supporting pollinators and other wildlife. And they are bringing communities together to sow and celebrate the flower, in a distanced way this year of course.

Some of the sites are already beginning to spring into life but in the fullness of time, they will all bring a suffusion of reds, blues, oranges…every colour of the rainbow in fact for everyone to enjoy.
