WPS Community Children’s Garden

With near 50 students turning up to join Garden Club last week, it’s lucky we’ve had a few Year 6's helping run the activities. This week we also had Flynn and Alex (School and House Captains from last year) come back to help out. 

 

For the last couple of weeks we’ve been harvesting the last of our carrots and potatoes. Once the beds are empty, we’ve been putting in more winter crops.

 

This week we carefully planted delicate little baby onions in trenches. This was very different to when we planted giant elephant garlic cloves last week.
