School children from Minerva Primary Academy from Years 4, 5 and 6 went to Hillfields park to plant trees.
It was hard work digging the holes, but the children had help from volunteers including Marvin Rees, the Bristol Mayor!
As Minerva Global citizens, they supported national tree week in their community by planting trees in the park. While the children were there, they learnt about the seedling native trees which are being planted to create a woodland which will become home to lots of wildlife. They also planted some larger trees like a hazel tree and a Tibetan cherry tree.
Jenny Harvey Principal of Minerva Primary Academy said, “It was a fantastic community morning filled with lots of great teamwork. We can’t wait to see the trees grow.”
