A SCHOOL near Chipping Norton is preparing to unveil its new sensory garden.

Garden designer Mandyrae Jessey has worked with children at Bledington School to designa large working and fun garden which now includes an outside classroom.

The garden started off as an idea by Ms Jessey, whose grandchildren attend the school, two-and-a-half years ago when she formed the school garden club.

The school received about £3,000 of donations for the project and won a £12,000 grant through Tesco's Bags for Life scheme.

Bledington School's sensory garden will be open on Friday from 2pm. For more email doolallybird@btinternet.com
