Finzean School Wood

	BCT manages the School Wood with Finzean Primary School to enable tree planting and other uses of the site by the pupils. The site has some trees from "Plant a Tree in '73" and around a third of the current pupils are children of the children who planted those trees over 25 years ago.
		In the Spring of 2007, work began on preparing the area of ground in preparation for tree planting. As some trees became available shortly thereafter, these were planted out, staked and enclosed in protective tubes. When funds become available some wild cherry and willow trees will be purchased and each class at Finzean Primary School will be given the opportunity to plant one to complete the work.
	The School Wood appeared on the Beechgrove Garden TV Programme on Thursday 20th May after a very busy but successful month's preparation. The local community in Finzean gave up a huge amount of time to help dig, rake, sow and generally prepare the ground for the filming which took place on 12-14th May. The Wood looks great after its transformation and the School will certainly use it a great deal in the future, as will the wider community. BCT would like to thank all those who helped from the local community and all the suppliers and retailers who donated plants, machinery and equipment.
