chools across Newcastle have been joining the rest of the borough community in getting green-fingered for a competition. Newcastle-under-Lyme is once again competing in the small city category of Heart of England in Bloom after establishing an unrivalled reputation in the horticultural contest over more than 30 years. Judges, along with representatives of the Newcastle In Bloom team, have been visiting schools in the area recently to check out what the town s school children have been doing for their bit in the contest. A spokesman for the Newcastle Borough Council Green Team said: It was great to be back on the road with the bloom judges recently. We saw some amazing school projects in our Newcastle In Bloom local competition.
