The Wellness Garden

Just across the road at Church Lench C.E First School is our Wellness Garden.

Project Background

After securing a small grant from Worcestershire County Council we were able to develop the Wellness Garden.  A dedicated outdoor space focused on supporting children's wellbeing.


The garden is in the grounds of Church Lench C.E First School and will provide children a sanctuary and quiet space to reflect and be calm.


This wonderful facility is scheduled to be completed at the beginning of the summer term 2025.

How it was...

With a large pond, overgrown grounds, scattered tyres, this unused wasted space was crying out for some love.


We saw amazing potential to become a vibrant learning calming space for little ones to explore and grow.


A bonus that the grounds were over at the school  means that using the space will help support children's transitions to school.

Progress so far...

We are excited to announce that our log cabin from Dunster House is now built, adding a magical touch to our Wellness Garden. The fairies have also found their homes in the outdoor space, sparking curiosity and imagination among our little learners.

As we continue to enhance the garden area, we are about to start creating an engaging outdoor home corner where children can explore and play pretend. Once this is complete we will be building our outdoor library to foster a love of reading and storytelling in a calming space amongst the Bamboo.


Keep popping back to see its progress!
