This November has been very busy with School visits focussing on planting up four of the circular beds in the walled
garden with tulip designs. Thankfully
its been a time of perfect autumn weather
with an amazing display of autumn colours in the Scampston gardens and Capability Brown parkland.
Three school groups form Settrington, West Heslerton and Rillington visited Scampston for autumn activity walks involving journey sticks (gathering natural materials that told the story of their walk), art collages and planting up their tulip bulb designs planned earlier in the summer term.

with Josh Parker their garden manager also visited Scampston to plant up one of the
tulip beds and to prepare activity materials for a local school Science investigation visit.
A group from The Croft are planning to visit Scampston on a regular basis in 2014 to help with gardening and the development of new education trails.
