Volunteer Update and Activities: March 2025
Thank you to everyone who came along to volunteer in the Waterloo Seafront Gardens during February.
Our pond work session in Beach Lawn was well attended, with 14 joining us on both Saturday and Sunday. We removed some more of the old reeds, cleared the new growth that has appeared over the last year and edged the grass growing around the edges of the whole pond. We also made sure to leave alone the oxygenating plants, lilies and iris, and some of the mat that dragonflies etc. will use for breeding. We also removed a fair quantity of bricks and other debris!
We had 6 at our Wednesday garden maintenance session.
At our Tuesday session we were joined by pupils from three local schools, who did fantastic work (and worm rescuing!) helping us to continue with the edging of the paths in Adelaide Garden. We’re nearly half way along the “top” path now, and hopefully will have finished ALL the edges in Adelaide by the end of April. Fingers Crossed!
This week is student volunteer week and we would like to thank all the fantastic children who came along to help at our volunteer session today. We had three schools over the course of the day: Newfield, Merefield and Waterloo Primary. Thanks to their efforts we have finished clearing all the paths in Adelaide Garden.
Thanks also to Sefton 4 Good for organising the day. You were all brilliant!
