The Story Teller

St George’s was lucky enough to have a story teller come and lead a session. We invited children and their parents to the storytelling session. It was a fantastic afternoon. Children came dressed with extra layers and some even brought flasks of hot chocolate and snacks.

It was amazing to see that the parents enjoyed it just as much as the children. Parents had an hour of no mobile phones and really got involved. Once the session was finished one parent said “That really took me back to my childhood, being by a campfire” and another said “I really loved listening to the stories, thank you!”

It was another fantastic afternoon in our Happiness Garden bringing the St Georges' and Patmore community together.

Forest School

Here are St Georges’ nursery children enjoying their first forest school session with Steven who manages to bring the outdoor learning to life and ignites the power, wonder and joy of learning through nature.

Building dens and shelters, collecting leaves and even looking for fairies are just some of the amazing things that happen in the Happiness Garden.

We officially opened our Happiness Garden in May 2022 with a visit from the Greater London Lord Lieutenant and the Mayor of Wandsworth. 

Here are some of the amazing people who have sponsored us and enabled The Happiness Garden to become reality.
