These are some of the Alliums we have in our flower bed along the front of our Fairy Forest. They're reckoned to be pretty rich in nectar so hopefully will encourage some Bees, which seem to be in short supply of at the moment.
Arellian Nursery School was the first Nursery School in Ireland. It was founded in 1928 by Members of the Arellian Association (former pupils of Richmond Lodge School). The members not only built the school but also funded it from 1928 to 1948, until the school was handed over to the Belfast Education and Library Board. Throughout the years the members of the Arellian Association have continued to serve on the school management committee. We are fortunate to have members of the Association on our present Board of Governors.
