Mrs Daly, Class Teacher at Saltoun Primary School, said: “Donations such as this are always gratefully received at our school. We actively promote nature in our playground and children are all very excited about the prospect of growing their own plants.”
Eve Johnson, marketing manager at BSW Timber commented: “We’re pleased to be able to support local children and schools, and to encourage our communities to take an interest in gardening. The planters provide the perfect opportunity for pupils to discover their green fingers, whilst engaging in hands-on learning about the science behind it all.”
