Road Side Stall

Today we set up a stall to sell lots of Enviro products.  We are hoping that lots of people out and about for the Taranaki Rhododendron Festival will stop by and make a purchase.

School Garden early 2013

The vege garden took off over the summer break and when the children arrived back the veges were as tall as they were.  Some of the children have discovered what beans taste like raw and how you can make your own seeds by leaving them to dry.  The children have a fantastic time wondering in amongst the pumpkins and zucchinis seeing their growth.  We have some huge zucchini's which we are going to turn into some cakes or if anyone has any recipes which we could try with the zucchini's please come and see Maree at school.  Children love trying new things.

In the garden with Gwenda

The garden enviro elective did a whole new remake of the garden area.  They put in new paths for easy access to the middle and planted a selection of vegetables.  The children all learnt about companion planting and how to grow great vegetables.  The lage bean frame looks rustic as well as serving a practical purpose.  The frame was covered in polythene and use as a hot house to grow some seeds.  Come and see all the wonderful work that has gone on.
