The lord Mayor of York has spoken to children about the importance of looking after the environment during a visit to a city park.
Sue Galloway visited Acomb Green to view beds of summer flowers planted and designed by pupils of Westfield Primary and York High schools.
Poppleton Community Railway Nursery provided flowers for the beds.
Keith Myers, chairman of the Friends of Acomb Green, said: “It was great to see the children from both schools work together for their community. The green has been entered into the Yorkshire In Bloom competition and this work will show the judges how we can work to improve our environment.”
