Gardening - Term 3

Our gardens look great! The bulbs have bloomed and are smelling so good. Our vegetables are growing so well too!

This week we gathered some carrots from our vege patch. We plan on making something really yummy from them

Vegetables!

Our vegetables are coming along so beautifully! It wont be too long until we can turn them into something delicious

The orchard harvest

Orange muffins

What a great start back to term 2! We were able to harvest some of the oranges from the trees in the orchard and use them to do some yummy baking!

We did lots of measuring, pouring, cracking and stirring. We even got to eat our treats afterwards. They tasted great!

Week two - Term two

Looking after the vege gardens 

Today  in gardening club we were looking after the vegetable gardens behind rooms 1&2. We started by digging up one of the potato planters. Eli and I found three potatoes and the other kids found four more.

Then we went to some of the strawberry plants and pulled out weeds. After that we went to the bean plants and did the the exact same thing.

Mrs Hahn even came to help us replant the corn which is growing beautifully!

It was another good day at gardening club

Term 2

Hi, it's Matthew and Eli from the gardening club. We're working together on the gardening club blog to keep you updated on what we've been doing :) 

Today in gardening club we cleaned up the front garden by the office. We were pulling out little weeds and trying not to pull out bulbs. There is a lot of work to do. :-}

Gardening is very fun, you should try it some time!

Plus, your hard work earns you almost free fruit and vegetables. You just need seeds and water; and the sun which is free - bonus cool. :-D
