The children had lots of great fun this year on our garden and we have got some of our best plants together to put in our wheelbarrow. Some things in the wheelbarrow are strawberry and gooseberry plants, green beans, selection of flowers and our chilli pepper plant.  We have managed to use some already for our cooking class.  

Also on our wheelbarrow is our bird house, bird feeder and our beaver pushing his wheelbarrow to the dam. And a nod to our trout that we reared in January. 

Designing a new garden has been thoroughly enjoyed by all pupils, as we have to continue to find creative ways in order to plant and grow produce. Unfortunately we don't have a secure garden area at our school, there can be a lot of antisocial behaviour locally, so to avoid disappointment, the young people came up with the excellent idea a few years ago of using a wheelbarrow. We sourced an abandoned wheelbarrow, recycled it and repainted it in anticipation of planting our garden. We will be able to move this to a secure space at the weekends. This has been loved and reused by us for 3 years now and the children take great pride in reinventing it each year.
