Edible Playground and Learning Outdoors

We did a Harvest Foods initiative with Blwyddyn 1 a 2 and our families.

 

Year 4 moved the strawberry plants so we were clear to plant some daffodil and allium bulbs in our new cut-flower bed.

  

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

Year 6 planted tulip bulbs and garlic and applied a new layer of compost to the beds to replenish the soil. They showed high levels of independence, reading the instructions carefully, estimating depth and spacing and showing knowledge of the months and seasons.

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

  • The ground was frozen solid when Year 3 had their session in the Edible Playground so they played a vegetable identification game indoors instead. They also completed questionnaires about which vegetables they would like to grow this year and their responses will be used to decide which seeds we order. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Year 1 sowed broad bean seeds, learning how to use tools correctly as well as estimating and measuring depth.
