Students at De La Salle School Basildon have started work on a project that will be of huge benefit to the school community in a variety of ways.

The initiative centres on the creation of a Community school garden designed around the Five Core Lasallian Principles providing teaching spaces, counselling spaces, prayer labyrinth, and a garden way of the cross.

One benefit is that the project will promote the church’s call for the care of our common home and integral ecological commitment. The garden creation and ongoing maintenance provides teaching opportunities across all ages and abilities in school.
