class garden


Typical, after all this effort watering it went and rained!



Lots of hard work went into the planting.





We need to tie up the floppy plants.




Make sure the plants are planted deep enough.






Look! we have finished the digging and the ceanothus has been cut. Now we just need to get planting




Have you seen what is going on outside our classroom?
We designed the area to make it look nice and attract wildlife.






We have to get rid of lots of grass first.


We will keep a grass path so we don't tread on the soil. Also we are going to keep the big ceanothus and shape it so we can sit under it. Ben says it will be our class yurt!




We have some very kind parents in our class who have been getting rid of the grass. THANKYOU.

I saw your garden today. I think it is important that children learn to grow plants and vegetables. I have been growing plants in my garden for over 60 years. Well done boys and girls. Remember to water all your plants to help them grow.
