Caring for our community – National Tree Planting Day 2024
In honour of National Tree Planting Day, Newhaven teamed up with the students of Wimba Primary School to plant over 100 trees and shrubs to promote sustainability and improve the natural environment of the school.
Our expert landscapers LD Total came along to educate the kids on the importance of planting trees. Excitement was evident as the kids eagerly lined up to get gloves and be involved in planting, learning new gardening skills along the way. The newly planted trees and shrubs will stand as a living symbol of the new primary school's ongoing development, growing alongside the students.
As part of Peet's national sustainability initiative, Newhaven is dedicated to the role we can all play in making a positive impact on our local environment.
