Renfrewshire Big Spring Clean

 P6 and ELCC take part in the Big Spring Clean, supported by Mr Patterson.

Gardening Club

This week the pupils washed down the polytunnel inside and out, with lots of soapy water and then hosed it down till it sparkled! 

Some of them got quite wet, but it was excellent fun and the new seedlings and plants will get lots of light.

Great job everyone!

A busy Thursday at Gardening Club!

Our Tom Thumb lettuces have germinated and two cabbage seeds!

We sowed two kinds of beans; climbers and broad. We also sowed godetia and sprouts.

Next, we planted some potatoes in sacks, cleaned up the strawberry beds, tidied at the school front entrance and filled up some beds with spare compost from last year.

We washed pots, seed trays and lots of tubes for putting round our leeks when the time comes. 

Phew!

P3B - We have been learning about Fairtrade, mapped the journey of Fairtrade chocolate and completed a comprehension activity which taught us all about Fairtrade flowers.

 

Pocket Garden Winner!

Mr Patterson invited his pupils to enter this year’s Eco School’s Pocket Garden Competition. The entries were amazing, with lots of creativity and design.

I am delighted to share with you that this year’s winner is John Jackson. His design will be created, planted and observed as it grows.

John chose this design because he has been learning about Scotland in class. He thought that it would be a good idea to represent Scotland with nature.

Mr Patterson:

"I am delighted that one of our pupils has been selected as a winner of the Pocket Garden competition. I am looking forward to supporting the pupils in bringing John's idea and design to life."

John chose this design because in class he has been learning about Scotland. He thought that it would be a good idea to represent Scotland with nature
