The Big Challenge - The Big Dig
Part of the series The Big Challenge
Will a surprised team of school staff be able to create an eco-friendly garden from scratch to be ready in time for its grand opening in just 36 hours?
Justin Clarke is an award-winning primary teacher at Forsbrook Primary School, just outside Stoke-on-Trent. He and his fellow staff members have no idea that their world is about to be turned upside down when they discover they have to create the garden in the school grounds.
The team have to work some hard labour but will be rewarded for their efforts by raising lots of money for Comic Relief. Will Justin and his team rise to the big challenge?
