Tower Hamlets Report written by Lucinda
8 goodgymers braved the heat to come to Columbia Primary school and put some proper elbow grease into Monday's task.
Thanks to Ingrid who kindly provided gloves and equipment. Shout out to Ed from down the road who lent us a few extra spades.
A very warm welcome to Alex for coming along to his first task.
Enter the Sandmen: Chris, Kareem and Alex who got to work clearing out the sandpit which had become full of toys. Once this was done they emptied out as much of the sand as they could, which Ingrid wanted to save for future use, into bags.
Emma joined us (once she managed to find the right entrance) and was hired on the spot to be trolley team leader. The job description was moving sand to the garden down the road. It involved navigating a busy cycle super highway and not mowing down pedestrians (mainly ourselves).
Ilana, Sam and Anna were the planter posse. This industrious team emptied out the soil from two worn out wooden planters. Once completed, they came in like a wrecking ball and forcefully dismantled the planters. The way Anna kicked the planters down suggested a serious background in martial arts.
We all came together in the end to tidy away the wooden shreds of the planters and do a general sweep up of the soil.
An amazing effort by everyone involved
