Welcome to Cookridge Primary School's Garden

Keep up to date with all that's going on in our school garden throughout the year!

Friday 6 July 2012

Wet, Wet, Wet

No, it's not just the name of a well known pop group of the 1990's, but the state of our garden.  I'm fed up reporting such dismal weather, but it is a fact of life in Britain at the moment - we're on the wrong side of the Jet Stream and suffering the consequences!
So, I'm busy getting ready for the Cookridge and District Horticultural Society's 69th Annual Show on Saturday 8th September (see the advert below), creating a display of our year of gardening and putting plans into place.  Hopefully the children will take up the challenge and we'll enter quite a few of the classes.

They're looking good

Here are some pictures of our garden today, 6th July 2012, with our rows of tomatoes.  A couple of weeks ago, I posted pictures of them being planted by Thailan, Brooklyn and Billy and now look at them!  The garden's looking so much tidier with its trim - thank you Aire Valley for helping us.

We're are now busy planning for next year and getting ourselves ready for September and the winter season.
