Week 8: Strawberries and Hanging Baskets

We only have 2 weeks left of our Rural Science class before we move to a new option class. We have been selling our herbs to the staff and are hoping to have a shared lunch with the money we have made and also donate some money to a worthy charity.

This week as part of our make our school beautiful project we set up our hanging flower baskets.

Here we all are hanging up the hanging baskets in the front entrance to the school. We will take it in turns to water them and add new plants as others die off.

Our Principal Mrs Hohneck came out to see our work and talked

to us about what we had been doing.

We have also been busy setting up a strawberry patch and an area to grow potatoes. We are hoping that they will be ready to eat for Christmas. We are going to put a net over the strawberries so they don't get eaten by the birds. We also put straw around them to keep them off the soil and keep the water in.
