September is fast approaching, soon the most prettiest of all seasons will be here .....Autumn!
Is your nursery/work garden surrounded by trees that shower your garden with gorgeous orange/brown leaves in autumn? Why don’t you create a leaf mulch area and turn those leaves into rich mulch to help your garden grow flowers/vegetables next spring?
Its easier than it sounds, all you need to do is collect all the leaves into one area (ideally a box or even garden bags) and nature will to do its own thing. Then in six months, say hello to lots of nutritious soil 👋🏼 !

Did you know that many products you would think are recyclable, are not actually recyclable?
After lots of research, we have discovered that many items that we used to put into our curbside bin, should not have been in there.
Now, we have a dedicated recycling zone which helps encourage our children/parents/carers/families to recycle at home, and items that are not to be recycled in curbside bins such as crisp packets, bread bags, cartons, containers, tubs etc are collected at our nursery and taken to specific depos with the children each week. It’s a great way for children to problem solve, meet outside communities and learn how to look after our precious planet.
Here’s a few more things that shouldn’t be finding their way into your recycle bin at home/nursery...

Why should we be teaching children how important bees and other bugs are to the life of humans? Well because we want them to understand this for life because it'll help those poor things with a bad reputation that they don't deserve that's why. We should build bug hotels for bugs of course, but also encourage our children to help them throughout their lives. Here are just 3 of the many reasons why...
No. 1 – Solitary Bees & Beneficial Bugs Need Our Help. There habitats are dwindling fast because we are concreting over their world. Interesting fact: In Europe alone, 84% of the 264 crop species are animal pollinated and 4,000 vegetable varieties exist thanks to pollination by bees. We really need them!
No. 2 – Bug Hotels Can Be Beautiful Pieces of Garden Art. You can build a simple frame and fill it with the children and they'll be so proud that they built somewhere to help the bees and bugs.
No. 3 - Bug Hotels Offer Learning & Therapeutic Opportunities for children and your staff. If you separate the different materials into sections children will see who hibernates where. Honestly its super interesting stuff.

Would you like to help save the bees but not sure what flowers to grow? Purchase a Beebomb!
Beebombs are native wildflower seedballs that just need to be scattered onto cleared ground to create a wildflower meadow that will #bringthebeesback
