Eco Garden Update

Now that the sunny weather is here we have been busy tidying up the Community Garden in Easter Road.  Lots of weeds have been removed.  The bulbs which were planted at the end of last year have produced a lovely display.

Living Eggs

The school were excited to get a special delivery of living eggs last week. We all loved watching the eggs in the incubator and some of us were lucky enough to see a chick hatch! Tom saw one hatch and said when it came out, it had goo all over it! The girls’ football team saw one hatch just as they were waiting for their coach. The chick didn’t come out straight away. It broke the egg and the egg rocked and moved for a while. Eventually 7 chicks hatched and we have loved going to see them and hold them. All our chicks leave us today and we’ll be sad to see them go!DSC01791DSC01788DSC01790DSC01789DSC01771DSC01770

Primary 1 – Green Fingers

Each group in Primary one planted Amaryllis, Crocus and Hyacinth bulbs.  This caused great excitement as we waited to see which group’s Amaryllis would flower first.  When we returned after the holiday weekend we had a lovely surprise as the red group’s had a beautiful big flowering head. A week later, the green and blue group’s plants began to flower too.  Everyone has been admiring our lovely window display!
