Taking out the scraps

 This week, one of our reading groups (The Book Hoarders), were reading a journal article all about a boy who took out the food scraps to the garden and found a few weeks later, that pumpkin plants had started to grow. 

So today 'The Book Hoarders' had a go at planting some of their very own pumpkin seeds, in hope that one day soon we will have our own pumpkin patch.  We talked about being safe around the potting mix, always wearing gloves and thoroughly washing our hands afterwards. The students watered their seeds and we placed them outside in a sunny spot to start sprouting. 

Apologies Maz and Ryden, Mrs Davan wasn't quick enough to get photos of you two. 😢
