Budding Gardeners Project D&T Scheme of Work Key Stage 3 rhs. org. uk/schoolgardening RHS Registered Charity No. 222879/SC 038262
BUDDING GARDENERS PROJECT SUMMARY OF THIS KS 3 SCHEME OF WORK Fits the D&T curriculum 5 week project linked to the RHS Budding Gardeners Competition Students design a 1 m x 1 m garden, create a model and present their ideas. Students build the winning design at one of the four RHS gardens to participate in the Budding Gardeners competition 1 m x 1 m (or pallet garden) competitions are held in many locations around the UK. It may be possible to enter the winning design into one of those if your school is not near enough to one of the four RHS gardens
WHAT IS BUDDING GARDENERS? An opportunity for school pupils to showcase their gardening and design skills, creativity and imaginative ideas, to RHS members and visitors during spring half term. Co-inciding with the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, schools are invited to create their own 1 m x 1 m mini show garden at one of the four RHS Gardens (Wisley, Hyde Hall, Harlow Carr, Rosemoor). The mini gardens will remain on display throughout spring half term.
WEEK ONE Learning Objectives: • To gain a knowledge and understanding of the RHS Budding Gardeners competition • To understand identify the roles within the RHS Budding Gardeners competition • To know what is expected over the course of the next 5 weeks Today's lesson: • Register, go through aims of lesson • What is the RHS Budding Gardeners competition? • What other garden shows/competitions do the RHS run? • What is theme this year? • What is expected? • Organise into groups of 4 -6 (depending on class size) & identify roles
WEEK ONE RHS FLOWER SHOWS It is important that you understand the RHS brand the type of gardens displayed at the RHS Flower Shows The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is one of the world’s leading garden shows which attracts designers from all over the world.

WEEK ONE Context (Theme) 2015’s theme was wonderland. Let your imagination run wild and put together an inspiring and eye-catching design for the 1 m x 1 m garden of your dreams!
WEEK ONE PROJECT DESIGN BRIEF Each Year 9 Design and Technology class will be broken down into small groups. Each group will design and create a model and a presentation for their garden based on theme of the RHS Budding Gardeners design competition. A winner from each class will go forward to a final panel of Judges and the top three will be picked. The top three groups will develop their models into real life gardens at a lunchtime club. These will be displayed on the school grounds and an overall winner will be selected. The winning group will re-create their garden at an RHS garden in a competition involving schools from across the region.
WEEK ONE PROJECT DESIGN BRIEF Think creatively about theme of ‘Wonderland’ Think about how you can resource your garden for free by asking parents for donations of plants, cuttings or recycled items, or using plants/items from your school garden and grounds. You could try using old milk cartons or wellington boots for plant pots, or bottles and buckets as hanging baskets Ensure that you have enough time and suitable facilities to grow your plants to be ready for display. You may need to grow plants from plugs (young plants) rather than seed, or you may need to buy established plants.
WEEK ONE PROJECT DESIGN BRIEF Questions to consider: How long does it take to produce the plants you need…from seed? From cuttings? From plugs? What conditions do they require if you’re going to grow them yourselves? Where can you buy ready-grown plants? How many do you need? How much will they cost?
WEEK ONE AWARDS Pallet gardens will be judged by RHS Curators and special VIP guests in the following categories: • • Best in Show (one per age category) Gold, Silver & Bronze Awards Green Award (best use of recycling) Most Original Award Curator’s Award Judge’s Award People’s Choice Award (as voted by visitors) Each school that takes part will receive a certificate and free entry for their pupils (with accompanying paying adult) to their RHS Garden during the Spring half term.
WEEK ONE 2014 GARDENS In 2014 theme was ‘recycled’ Some of the awards were given for Best in Show (KS 3 -5), Most Creative, Green Award and The Chris Collins Award. Of the pictures on the next slide, who do you think was the winner in each category and why?

WEEK ONE TASK • Get into groups of four to six people • Assign the team roles: - Designer - Finance Manager - Team Leader - Landscaper • As a group discuss how you will interpret theme of ‘wonderland’
WEEK TWO Learning Objectives: • • • To understand identify the design brief in further detail To research previous Budding Gardeners competitions To gain a knowledge and understanding of market research To design and develop your gardens on A 3 paper or Google sketch up To continue to respond to the RHS brief. Today's lesson: • • Register, go through aims of lesson Look at the RHS design brief and highlight key aspects creating a task analysis Respond to the design brief and context ‘Wonderland’ Consider what other research needs to be done Look at the Thumbnails you have drawn, shortlist some ideas (2 or 3) Financiers: Start looking at materials and cost Designers: Develop the shortlist design ideas from the thumbnails in more detail, either by hand or Google sketch up Landscapers: Look at possible hard landscaping materials, features and plants
WEEK TWO UNDERSTANDING THE BRIEF AND CONTEXT: Wonderland RHS Budding Gardeners Brief: The winning entry from your school will be re-created at an RHS Garden in a day. A 1 m by 1 m raised bed, filled with compost, will be set out. You need to bring everything else. 1 m x 1 m is not very big! Questions to ask: • What are the different ways to create height in your garden? • What different materials could you use? • What will you need to know? Don’t forget about the plants! Good quality plants are important. You will need to research pallet gardens and Budding Gardeners to inform your design ideas.
WEEK TWO UNDERSTANDING THE BRIEF AND CONTEXT Task: Read the design brief individually As a team create a task analysis on A 3 paper Materials? Wonderland Hard landscaping (paths, features, structures)? What is the RHS brand? RHS 2015 Budding Gardeners What is your budget? Sustainable concerns ? Soft Landscaping (plants)?
WEEK TWO Thumbnails Work in your groups on A 3 paper. • Start thinking of ideas in response to the design brief and context. • Take it in turns to visualise those ideas on the A 3 paper. • The drawings do not need to be perfect they need just enough detail to communicate the garden design idea. • After you have a series of ideas, discuss them and see how they could be developed to further meet the brief.
