Zamira's Garden Report
15 Jun 2010 - 3:20pm

This year has been a real challenge for school gardeners.  The dry season didn't help much.  At the end of term 1, plants that had gone to seed were harvested. The seeds were grown in trays, and this week we planted them out in our garden.  We won't know what the plants are until they are a little bigger.  We would like to thank the Room 1 boys for digging over the garden last week ready for our plants.
