Report written by Rachel Henry
On a warm summer evening, the lovely GoodGym Greenwich crew took a short dash to Charlton Manor Primary School to lend a hand in their nursery garden. The mission? A mix of bench painting and weed-busting to get the space looking spick-and-span for the little ones.
Paintbrushes in hand, we gave the playground benches a fresh coat of colour while the rest of the team tackled overgrown patches of the nursery garden with gusto. It didn’t take long before the place looked greener, neater, and definitely more welcoming.
During our weeding adventures, we made a surprising discovery: 15 tennis balls scattered around the garden....Perhaps a mini-Wimbledon had taken place without us? (Very on-theme, with the real Wimbledon just around the corner next week!)
To top it all off, a group of curious fox cubs peeked out to watch us work, clearly approving of the transformation.
A good workout, a tidier garden and some brighter benches for the kids to enjoy. Game, set, and match to us!
This weekend we've got our river walk and weeding at Mycenae gardens. Next week to kick off July we've got a new task in the woodland garden of the memorial hopsital. Be prepared for a run up shooters hill for that one 😁
Until next time!
