What would you do if you were offered over a thousand pounds to spend on a science project in your school? This is the enviable position that Conwy schools have found themselves in as part of a three-year rolling project by the Edina Trust. The Edina Trust has been working together with Conwy Local Authority since 2010 to develop the Gardening Club Grant Scheme in state primary schools across Conwy. The grant scheme has provided schools with the means to develop natural habitats, develop sensory gardens, or regenerate their school grounds as a practical science resource. The grants also have been used to establish gardening clubs to give children the opportunity to experience growing their own fruit and vegetables, equipping them with skills for later life. In this article, the author examines the impact of the involvement of the Edina Trust in schools in Conwy, North Wales. (Contains 5 figures and 3 online resources.)
