Pastures New: Down at Dinton
Every Thursday the Level 1 Steps to Success students take part in an off site Work Experience placement at Dinton Pastures Country Park in Hurst. This year we have been involved in a number of projects, the main one is working on a new garden which has been designed by an ex BCA Student.
Work on the garden has included:
Building a new fence / Sanding and staining the table and benches for the café / Maintaining the raised beds / General maintenance and tidying up activities after the builders had completed the patio for the café.
We have also worked around the park and tasks have included:
Maintaining and improving fisherman areas / Litter picking / Clearing the BMX area / Cutting back the areas around the lakes to enable visitors to see the lakes clearly.
The photo is of the team of students who go each week. We have had excellent feedback from the Park Rangers who always comment on the high standard of work and also the general public who always ask us what we are doing and where we are from.
