Instaplanta form partnership with local Leeds School .............

Instaplanta are to work closely with Lawns Park Primary School in Leeds to help them in the development of both their gardening project and their outdoor play facilities.

Instaplanta's Paul Robinson said " It's a real pleasure to be working with Lawns Park, being a Yorkshire based company ourselves to be giving something back to the community fills me with a great sense of satisfaction"

Instaplanta will be providing the school with their new and unique gardening system which allows children to participate in gardening activities in any given location, including indoors so the weather can no longer disrupt the teachers lesson plans. The system also allows children to take home their own plant filled growing pods to look after during the school holidays.

The school will also be receiving new outdoor play equipment such as, pull-up bars, a-frames, balance beams and lots more to help encourage the children to lead more active lives!!
