Our new allotment

Welcome to our new School allotment Blog Diary

Years 1, 2 and 5 have been working very hard since the start of this year planting seeds and potting them on ready to plant outside.

Everyone is really excited now that we are well into Spring. We are all beginning to see the fruits of our labour.

Year One and Two

The Early Years children have developed their own allotment area where they will grow root vegetable and some of their salad crops. They have also planted up the large white containers on the early years steps.

The children have noticed that their potatoes have sprouted and that their carrots are making good progress too.

Year Five

Inspired by their studies of World War II, Year 5 have been digging in since January. They have successfully planted carrots, broad beans, garlic and onions! Well done! Inspired by their success they have moved on to plant potatoes, carrots, leeks, strawberries, runner beans, peas, herbs and chilli peppers!

Year 5 have developed the area between the playground and School Lane and they are also making good use of the sun trap outside their own class room.
