The Wellbeing Garden

Benenden Primary School invested in a restful retreat for kids and staff to enjoy. Utilising the sail shade and logs for seating, kids and teachers can retreat surrounded by plants throughout the year. Although visible from much of the site, the centre is private. A reflection bowl offer further one to one space and a willow ‘igloo’ provides some much needed fun in nature.
