It was a bright sunny day in Weston when Bitterne Park school came with students and teachers to undertake the Plants for People (P4P) garden intervention programme. This aims at dealing and addressing mental health issues with a horticulture approach, this is done informal and therapeutic approach.
On this bright Monday morning P4P opens its doors to a small group with learning support needs from the Bittern Park school accompanied and supported by their two teachers. The students were given an option of tasks available at hand to which they must choose accordingly. The students rationalised the options and decided that watering the raised beds plants, was the easiest task to do! As the students started off the day doing watering, the teachers decided to get involved in doing some weeding in selected raised beds the task that the students didn’t want to do.
