This week the children have enjoyed turning over the last of our vegetable beds in preparation for planting. We found lots of mini beasts and this was a highlight of the day. One child found a huge, long worm which he enjoyed admiring whilst the other children spotted bees, centipedes, millipedes and spiders.

We planted our potatoes, strawberries, salads and onions into the beds and then the children enjoyed having a well deserved rest in the orchard area on their new wooden bench. We checked on the growth in our polytunnel and were amazed to see our cosmos are growing very well. We can’t wait to see what colours we have.
