Veolia Plant Apple Trees

6th May 2026

Many thanks to Alan Walker, parent of George P7, for nominating Camphill PS forward to receive a donation of 5 apple trees. We were only one of two schools in the whole of Ireland to receive this wonderful donation!

We learned today that you need a minimum of 5 apple trees to have an orchard. We are delighted to have 8 apple trees, qualifying us to classify our trees as an orchard! 

Alan also chatted us through how his company can make use of waste products by turning it into electricity.  

Have a look at the photos of the Eco Team getting their hands dirty whilst planting the trees. A very insightful and enjoyable morning!
