Wykebeck Primary School in Gipton, Leeds received a YGT Schools Grounds Development Award in April 2025, to add a polytunnel for growing from seed, and to extend the school's core values of kindness and respect, to the environment.
We recently received this update from them - 'we have managed to grow some wonderful flowers, strawberries (just started flowering) and tomatoes from seeds...I still have some money to purchase raised beds. We have been successful in being awarded Grow for Schools next year and I have further plans to extend the garden. So thank you, your support has started something quite amazing for our school. I am excited for what the next year brings. We also have a working wormery!!!' The wormery was also gifted to the school by YGT.
