What's blooming at MKS? Meet the first flower in our series: Alyssum.
You can find these little white flowers in the planters by our entrance. They may be small, but they have a lovely sweet fragrance especially when the flowers are fresh. Take a gentle sniff and you might catch a hint of honey (you'd never think they were related to mustard and cabbage)!
There's more to our flower beds than pretty blooms. Horticulture is part of our enriched learning at MKS, giving pupils the chance to get hands-on with planting and growing around the school.
The alyssum in our entrance beds has been planted and cared for by our students - something they can look after and that everyone in our school community can enjoy.
Next time you're here, have a look - and a sniff!
