We had two sessions with Margaret today. In the first
session, we made worm weed tea (liquid from the worm farms plus ‘weed tea’) – a
nutritious drink for the garden, made by mixing weeds collected from around the
school with dried chicken poo and water. This gave us the opportunity to practice using
the wheelbarrow as we collected weeds from the enormous pile near the sandpit.
After
recess, we fed the garden with worm weed tea and water, fed the chooks (and
found three eggs!).
Then we picked some parsley, spinach and lettuce to add to
our delicious garden vegetable soup that we got to eat at big lunch. It was
delicious!
While this was happening, Kirsty worked with a small group of children to plant the pea seedlings in pots to form our ‘pea teepee’.
Thank you to Jo and Kirsty for being fabulous parent helpers
today!
