This week pupils have analysed the soil and constructed the raised beds for their vegetable garden. The weather has been wonderful: warm, sunny and dry every day.
Max, in Form 1, explained how his class have been involved:
Our garden looks quite bare at the moment, but that's because we have to do a lot of preparation to make sure our vegetables grow properly. In Art, we used Google Earth to see the area we are going to plant, and then talked about which vegetables would grow best. We need both sun and shade because different plants like different things. We measured our plot.
The plot is really good. It has thousands of worms which clean the soil. In ICT we have an outdoor camera which will film our plot as we work on it. Then the film can be speeded up for us to watch. That will be amazing.
I can't wait to work on our garden again. Everyone is working together. I'm excited because the plants are going to arrive next week
