Fermoys staff surprised teachers and children at Bradley Barton Primary School in Newton Abbot by interrupting assembly with the news that they had won The Greatest Jubilee Doorstep Award for Schools.

Margaret Portas from the school received the award with children from The Green Gardening Club and was delighted with the news.

“Our school works really hard to create a green environment for the children and we take great pride in our wonderful gardening department. Our school has an outdoor classroom and every child gets an hour’s gardening each week, so it’s an important part of our curriculum.”

Fermoys presented the Greatest Jubillee Award along with £100 of Fermoy’s Garden vouchers for the school to spend in store.
