Maggie Gardening!

This week I have been helping the P1 class get ready for spring.

                  Their planter needed to be weeded before any seeds could be planted. 

 Look at all the weeds!
It was hard work pulling out all the weeds but the children didn't seem to mind.

It was nice to be out in the sunshine.


Once we had pulled out all the weeds we then had to plant green manure.  Green manure helps prepare the soil, getting it ready for when we plant the little seeds.

My favourite part was using the watering can to water the soil.  I was careful not to get my paws wet!


WOW! Look at our planter now!

We need to wait 3 weeks and then we will be able to plant lots of yummy vegetables in our planter.  I wonder which vegetables the P1 children will want to plant?
