As shown on BBC Gardeners' World in 2017. Beautiful school gardens tended by pupils, staff and community gardeners. Wander along Darwin's path to see the coastal garden, Jurassic garden, orchard, tropical bed, stumpery, wildlife areas, allotments and apiary, plus one of the few camera obscuras in the south of England.

BBC Gardener’s World featured this primary school garden as a superb example of how to encourage an interest in growing for food and wildlife. The pupils take a very active part in the maintenance and future of the site, as do many of their parents and local volunteers. Quite inspirational in both concept and delivery. Something quite different for the garden visitor.
