Goldstone's Living Classroom
Welcome to our living classroom at Goldstone!
A place we use to teach the children all about horticulture. We believe the skills to grow food are highly beneficial for their personal development and nothing beats spending time outside!
For more information about how our Living Classroom is used to support learning across the school, please click here.

Goldstone's Green Guardians
The 'Green Guardians' is a lunch club run every Tuesday and Thursday in the living classroom for those children with an interest in horticulture or may just prefer some time in nature, away from a busy playground.
The children learn the basics of gardening and growing food from seed sowing, pricking out and and potting on, as well as soft and hard wood cuttings and much more!
Goldstone recognises that a fundamental part of primary education its about learning life skills and nurturing the environment that we live in - what better way to future-proof our children than to teach them to grow their own food!
From our horticulturalist, Ruth
