Willenhall Community Primary garden given lift-off
by Andy Hutson
A TEAM of five volunteers from Coventry Airport hoisted their shovels and got digging to help a primary school.
They helped build some raised flower beds for a sensory garden at Willenhall Community Primary School.
The initiative was part of a day of action organised by Business in the Community (BITC).
Chris Orphanou, CEO at Coventry Airport, said: "We are more than happy to work together with the community in doing our bit to assist the environment and this project has been extremely satisfying."
Sue Lindsay, marketing and PR manager at the airport, said: "We chose this project because Willenhall Primary School is under our flight path and can be affected by our operations."
Richard Harvey, Year 6 teacher at Willenhall who worked on the project with the airport team, said: "This garden will provide a 'hands-on' way of teaching elements of the science and maths curriculum which will interest the children and inspire creative teaching"
