Primary 2/1 enjoyed their slot at at the school allotment today. Mrs. Raeburn and her little helper Sion were there to meet us. There were a few jobs needing done, so we split into three groups. Peas, potatoes and sunflowers all needed to be sewn. We all had fun looking around the different plots and finding out about the various plants and vegetables. Mrs. Raeburn let us smell some of the herbs she had planted last week. Mr. McCartney also came around to ask some of the children to plant beetroot. We saw the strawberries that Ellie had planted with her Papa’s help. Thanks to all of our helpers including Mrs. Kumar, who enjoyed planting the sunflowers.
It is great to see everyone being involved in the allotment. Looking forward to everything growing later.
I think we will need to start looking out recipies for all the veg we are growing this year. Thanks for your help everyone, hope you had fun!
