Term 3 Week 7

Room 15 in the Garden

Our PEA seedlings were big enough to be planted out.

So a group from ROOM 15 moved the stakes to a new place in the garden bed

Once the stakes were in they planted out the peas and watered them

PEAS need support as they grow! 

ROOM 2 in the garden
I brought the vegetable/fruit juicer in today and the children harvested the BEETROOT, CARROT, SILVERBEET and SPINACH
We also made APPLE and ORANGE juice and mixed it with the veggie juice!
IT was delicious, tasted by all, and of course some drunk more juice than others!
The important thing was : They all tried it ! Even those who said that they didn't like beetroots! 

Room 1 also made juice and had a few minutes to spare, so with their tummies full of veggie/fruit juice of they went to do some weeding ! GREAT JOB room 1 !

Term3 Week 6

Room 1 in the garden !

It has been a dry week and no rain!

So ROOM 1 worked as a team to keep the hose from bending, and taking turns they WATERED the whole garden, once the garden soil was nice and moist it was easier to pull the weeds out! 

We also talked about our favourite veggies, we planted new seed in pots, and we watered them!
