I am new vegetable growing but have started a vegetable patch in my garden.
I have planted out some courgettes but the flowers keep rotting off. Will
they survive or should I try to plant some new.

Courgettes often seem to start off that way ( cold weather ?). They will
soon be fruiting properly. Their other trick is to wait until your back is
turned before expanding overnight into marrows.
