Ripon Grammar School pupils have been busy planting trees on the school site GREEN-FINGERED Ripon Grammar School students have proved themselves a force for nature with the planting of ten trees as part of a fruitful environmental project. The new apple, plum and pear trees, along with some smaller fruiting hedgerow trees, add to the small apple orchard established by students last winter on the school’s 23-acre site. RGS has also won funding for an even more ambitious tree planting endeavour this winter, when students will help create a 3,000-plant wildlife-friendly hedgerow around the school site. Following a challenging year of lockdowns and Covid-19 restrictions, it is a project that is giving students the chance to reconnect with nature and each other while spending time in the outdoors in pursuit of a healthier environment.
