Burbage PTFA are delighted to have received a grant of £1000 from The Morrisons Foundation.

The money they have received will be put towards improvements in to their forest and gardening club areas. The forest school area ensures pupils can be educated in an outdoor learning setting. It is a place the eco council frequent to improve their understanding of how caring for nature and our world benefits our society.

Buxton PFTA hope to be able to improve their gardening club area so that a greater number of children can learn how to harvest their own fruit and vegetables, creating sustainability and providing healthy eating options for themselves and their families. As they hope education on such issues at a young age will generate an interest and passion for future years ahead.
