On Friday, the College community came together to take part in our 'Wildflowers for Wellbeing' event. 🌷🌻🍃
Students were invited to help the College gardeners plant a variety of bulbs in our wildflower meadow, including Narcissus pseudonarcissus, also known as the wild daffodil or Lent lily.
Special thanks to College Nurse Rachael Arkle for helping to organise the afternoon as part of the College's welfare and wellbeing support. We look forward to reaping the rewards in the Spring!
