The wonderful sunshine that we’ve experienced at the start of term and the beauty of the flowers in our raised beds really make us aware, in the words of the old hymn, that 

All good gifts around us

Are sent from heaven above,

Then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord

For all His love.

And just as a new crop of flowers has grown through the year, so year 6 students have now become year 7’s and begun a new stage of their lives and growth at St Edmund’s.

In the photos Hayden, Maja and Grace are helping to “deadhead” some flowers. The effect of removing dead or damaged flowers encourages the plant to produce more flowers for us all to enjoy for longer during the term and seeds gathered from some seed-heads will be sown for next year’s growth.
