NI Water donate a waterbutt - Eco work continues!

25th Mar 2021

Thanks to NI Water who have donated a waterbutt for use in our school garden. We are always trying to improve the grounds and the outdoor learning environment. We work hard to enhance pupil well-being and mental health and also to improve the sustainability of the school grounds.

Waterbutts are a great way to do this as they harvest rainwater, which can then be used to water plants.

We are also using NI Water's virtual education lessons in school.
