Celebrating our Learning Tomorrow!

Hi everybody –

Just a reminder that tomorrow afternoon is our classroom celebration, celebrating the intense learning that has taken place in our inquiry – “Spinning in Space”.

Don’t forget “the fun stuff” for tomorrow – bringing your space dress-up gear and any space-theme finger food (if you are bringing any to share) to class in the morning.  You will change after lunch.  Parents, you might need to bring your ‘space awareness’ with you as we’ve got a quiz for all of you!

What an awesome bunch of young environmentalists and scientists you were today!  I love the way you showed respect to the presenters and threw yourselves whole-heartedly into whichever activity it was that we were at!  I’d be interested to hear from you in a comment to this post – which activity did you enjoy most?  Why?

Our Kitchen Garden Bed


First we did a tour around the kitchen garden. Next we saw the chickens and compost. After that we dug some holes and planted some seeds, plants and veggies. We did lots of planting.

We planted:

  • broad bean seeds
  • carrot tape seeds
  • strawberry plants
  • beetroot seedlings
  • lettuce seedings

Lastly, we watered the plants with worm wee.

Henry also wrote a report for our website.

At first we had a really good look around the kitchen garden.  Then we flipped the soil really well to mix it.  People came up with seeds and we made holes and put the seeds in.  We put in carrots, broad beans and some lettuce.  We put fences up for the rabbits.  We put other seeds in too and watered them.  Now we have to grow them…

Since then our garden has just grown and grown and we have had our gardeners: Isaac, Callum and Henry down there adding more and more plants to our patch.  Watch this space for updated photos.  🙂  (Mrs Veary)
