Garden to Table with Room 5

Week 1
We learnt where everything was in the school. Some of us were surprised that we have a fruity forest (It's growing), the Kakariki gardens, the garden beds on the steps, the raising pods close to the compost heap and the worm farm!

We found a Fejoa tree with Oyster scale that we need to spray.

We tidied up the raising pods

Week 2
Mothers day herb harvest with Miss Stevenson! 


Mrs Mardell is in Room 3.


Week 3
Its raining! 
Group 1 managed to do some weeding before it started to rain.
We decided not to spray the oyster scale on the fejoas with Neem spray as it would just wash off. We have to wait for a sunny day.

That's ok we've got lots of learning learning about why we compost and worm farm on the blog. 
Click on the links above to learn more.

Homework for next Thursday
Watch the videos on compost and wormfarming and read and think about the questions with the videos

Every Thursday


  •  Remember your rain coat, sensible shoes and warm clothes, so we can get out into the garden.

  • You might like to get your own pair of gardening gloves at Mitre 10 or Bunnings.
