The school community raised money and offered free labour to create the garden because James loved outdoor garden lessons.
The garden features multiple references to the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland which was James’ favourite cartoon character.
It was also built with children’s wheelchair access in mind.
Joshua cut a ribbon decorated with Cheshire Cats to officially open the garden.
He said: “I think he would have loved it. He loved The Cheshire Cat and that’s a big theme around the garden. There’s a lot of purple, pink, statues and imagery of The Cheshire Cat in general.”
“I feel very thankful and grateful for everyone who’s helped make this dream a reality,” Joshua added.
