Fruit Trees

We have recently received ten young fruit trees from the Hungerhill Fruit Tree Project. These trees have been propogated from Nottinghamshire stock trees and reflect the rich heritage of apple trees in Nottinghamshire. We will be planting some of the trees on the school site but have six trees to give away. Please contact us if you wish to nurture this heritage stock in your own garden, there are trees of different sizes but most are grown on MM106 and MM25 rootstock, growing 12 -15Ft or 20 – 25FT tall.

Harvest Celebrations

Headteacher — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 11:24:52 +0000

Generous harvest gifts from parents and children this year have once again allowed us to distribute over 70 parcels to the elderly residents of Trowell. It is lovely to be able to continue this harvest tradition here at Trowell School. We know that the harvest parcels are very well received as each year we are sent cards and thank you letters from recipients. These small harvest gifts are an opportunity for our pupils to show respect and kindness towards the elderly people who live near them. We are very grateful that our families remain so generous.
