Level 3 achieved

Finally we have achieved Level 3 in School Gardening from the RHS program. 

This will help us to develop our garden by planning and plating seasonal. Why? Because this time the prizes are series of boxes brimming full of young vegetable and fruit plants during school term times ready to help our patch.

It's so exited that apart of  keep working on our current plants we need to start thinking on getting our growing space ready for September.

Planting out again for the third time.

The slugs has been eating all our crops and we are trying to keep our new crop safe.We use ground coffee and sand to deter the slugs and snails but the weather is not helping either and it is washing everything away.
We are hoping that this time, our plants will survive and get strong enough to give some produce.

Also, we have made our herb planter next to the mud kitchen so we can season our pretending food during our play.

Gardening through the sense

Before Easter, we homed a gardening group for parents and children to learn how to enjoy and learn gardening at the same time we spend time play.

Organized by the Bristol Learning Communities Team and the Families Services of Knowle West Children Centre, this group went on for five weeks being a success.
Due it was planned for a small group, many parents that could not join in this edition were interested on attending in a future occasion.

Delivered but an amazing teacher and gardener but greater person Katherine Asal, the sessions were busy from the first minute to the last. 
Have a look to the following picture and description of the sessions.
