A PERFECT DAY FOR GARDENING
What a perfect day to get out in the garden with our buddy class, Room 23. We planted over 300 bulbs in the village green today and are looking forward to spring time when we will see the fruits of our labour. The children were surprised by how much mathematics is required in gardening. They had to consider the depth and distance apart for every bulb they planted. Some of the children continued on after lunch, helping out in the vegetable garden. The silver beet, kale, parsley, potatoes, cabbages and broccoli are coming along nicely and (hopefully) will be ready to harvest early next term. There seems to be a few green thumbs in Rm 22, which could come in handy for the gardens at home.
