No Adults Allowed Gardening Competition

This competition is now closed for entries. Our judges are in the final stages of deliberations, the winners of the No Adults Allowed competition will be announced soon.

What's it all about?

Pupils from Sulivan Primary School in London worked with garden designer Harry Holding to create the brief and design for their very own show garden. The pupils chose to design a No Adults Allowed Garden, a safe space for children to learn, play and explore.

To celebrate the garden, we are asking children and young people across the UK to design their own No Adults Allowed Garden. If you're a primary school, enter to be in with the chance of winning £1,000 which will help to bring their ideas to life within their school grounds.

Resources 

We are now out of printed No Adults Allowed packs, but you can still take part using the digital resources below.

 

Who can take part? 

This project is designed for primary school pupils registered with the Campaign for School Gardening. 

If your school is not a primary school you are still welcome to download the resources and adapt these materials to suit your pupils, however you will not be eligible to enter the competition.

Why take part? 

Gardening and connecting with nature has a wide range of benefits for young people.

As well as offering an entry point into growing, this project is youth-led and gives young people the chance to develop their life skills and to voice their ideas, opinions and thoughts.

This is an exercise in creative thinking - pupils can think freely, explore their imagination and problem-solve using the power of plants.
