Could this be a prediction of things to come? ๐๐คโฝ

๐ฑ Weโre proud that CMA was selected to take part in the RHS Seedling School Pilot, which concluded on 6 July.
Over the course of the project, 35 Year 8 students explored the connection between plants, wellbeing, and the environment. Through hands-on activities, they discovered how gardens function as living systems and learned the importance of shared responsibility by caring for a planter, generously donated to CMA.
The initiative included two inspiring RHS sessions at CMA, as well as a memorable visit to RHS Bridgewater. It was a fantastic opportunity for our students to develop new skills, build confidence, and deepen their appreciation of the natural world. ๐ฟ๐

๐ Congratulations to a group of our Year 10 students who have successfully completed the Manchester Young Academics Programme at the University of Manchester!
Over the past few months, they have taken part in workshops, visited the university, completed a university-style assignment, and celebrated their achievements at a graduation ceremony with their families.

We rounded off the celebrations with โRainbow Fridayโ, where students and staff wore a splash of rainbow colour to show their support. ๐๐ #BrightFuturesEquality
