Students from Camphill School Aberdeen, which provides education and support for children and young people with special needs, recently carried out refurbishment work at the Ross Watt Community Garden in the Culter area of the city, as part of their activity for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.
James Jay, Conor Reid, Samuel Scott and Charlie Walker – all 18 years old – improved the gardens and the play area, as well as starting work on a new walkway and seating area in the wooded section of the garden. This part of the work was particularly hard as it involved removing large boulders from the route.
In total, nine students from Camphill School are working towards their Duke of Edinburgh’s Awards, which involves voluntary work, physical activity and an expedition.
Conor said: “I thought it would be an opportunity for my last year at Camphill School Aberdeen. It has been a lot of hard work, but it has also been good fun.”
