I bought our Christmas tree two weekends ago - a little earlier than normal.
It's a real tree.
It's a potted Nordman Fir, which can be planted out after the festive season is over. The tree has a label and the NeedleFresh website allows you to find the origin of your tree.
I had a look, as I went through a Christmas tree plantation at the end of October up near Perth, with all the trees labelled up with their height labels even though they were still growing at that point and not yet harvested.
There's the annual debate over whether real or artifical trees have the best environmental footprint, and this is something which we are discussing within the school in terms of the long term benefits of either.
The main school Christmas tree apparently comes from Suffolk.
