Garden to Table - Week 3





In Week 3 for Garden to Table, Room 24 students worked hard in the gardens! We worked together to remove weeds from around our fruit and vegetable trees so that they could grow better. After weeding we split into small groups and completed some smaller tasks like filling the compost bins with leaves, emptying soil created in the worm bins, and digging out kumaras! Our kitchen team prepared a delicious meal for us once we had finished our hard work in the gardens!

Garden to Table (Weeks 1 and 2)!







Room 24 has had two fun and productive weeks at Garden to Table. In our first week, the gardening team worked hard on weeding the garden beds, and added food to the worm farms. Miss G taught us the correct technique of pulling out weeds. To weed correctly, we need to put our hands into the soil, underneath the plant, and dig out the weed from its bulb. If we don't remove the bulb, the weed can continue growing in our garden. After our gardening session, we joined the kitchen team who prepared a delicious meal for us! In the second week, the gardening team worked on cutting up wood for our pizza oven. It was a lot of hard work, but we worked as a team to get the job done!

Holiday Readers for Term 2!


Well done to our holiday readers from Room 24! They did an awesome job of reading over the Term 1 holidays and filling in their reading logs. As a reward, they got a visit from Fair Judy and a reward of their choice. Great job girls! Keep it up!
