Description

Join the school gardening revolution with this charming and practical guide to gardening with children. Informative and anecdotal in equal measures, this is both the story of how Guardian columnist Dominic Murphy set up a thriving gardening club at his local primary school, and an easy-to-use, week-by-week guide to gardening throughout the academic year.

Packed with tips for growing everything from sunflowers to salad, as well as ideas for projects that incorporate many key areas of the curriculum, from art to science, this is the ideal resource for teachers and parents alike.

Full of personal anecdotes, this handbook also takes practical limitations into account, such as poor resources, limited space, varying age ranges and school holidays - with insightful solutions to conquering each hurdle!
