the pit is infilled with a mixture of woodchip and straw, and then back filled with soil. The overflow from the rain tank will be directed here, creating a resource to feed the bamboo grove.

Growing Schools in Whitley
This is my project blog, following the development of 6 schools gardens as part of the Whitley Excellence Cluster's Aspire project, in Reading. Myself and colleague Dave are working with teachers, school governers and of course the pupils to create school gardens that are healthy, abundant and sustainable landscapes. The project started in March 2006. This is my diary of the work and I hope to encourage pupils to write their own blog for their individual garden projects.
