Saturday 6th February
We met in the Copse near to the New Guided bus way.
We had a great time and found out that team work really does work when you are trying to remove hugh lengths of ivy and carry them away.
Team Work Really Helps When Removing Ivy.
I Didn't Know Ivy Grew This Big!
We collected piles of rubbish (lots of undelivered news paper rounds!)
We also helped to weed and mulch the hedge which was planted 3 years ago.

Saturday 13th February
Again we met up at the copse in a snow storm!
We removed more ivy and litter.
Then we cleared the area of weeds and ivy from around the marker canes ,dug a hole in the middle, after this we fetched half a wheel barrow full of compost – then we were ready to collect a tree, stake and guard ready to plant our trees.
