Fake It

Newman Catholic College

I am very proud of the achievements of our students and staff in recent years, and the opportunity provided to follow the inspiring example of Cardinal John Henry Newman in this new academic year will undoubtedly put the school on the path to even greater success. If you do not know our school, or have not visited it for some time, I would urge you to come and see us – we are happy to welcome parents, carers and young people at any time. I am certain that you will be impressed by the dedication, commitment and expertise of our teachers, and the dynamic and exciting learning environment that is provided for the students.

Sempervirens Bridge Farm Nursery

Sempervirens began in March 2003. Steve Evans, who runs Kingston Garden Services Ltd, wanted his own nursery onsite in Twickenham to provide him with a regular supply of plants. Local landscapers quickly saw the benefit of sourcing their plants from Sempervirens - it saved them spending an hour round trip travelling to the nurseries in Woking. Today, when you realise that you're one roll of turf short, it takes five minutes to pop back and grab one. What started as a puddle-ridden, messy yard has now become a smart, organised nursery, with plants laid out in beds, proper pathways and clear signage. Sempervirens was revamped in January 2007, with new fences, windbreaks and gravel beds. The nursery is now stocked with a large variety of plants, trees and shrubs at reasonable prices.
