Life+in+the+Junior+Garden

__Life in the Junior Garden__ With Spring upon us the Juniors have been busy in their garden. On Wednesday 25th of September, Rooms 5, 6 and 7 continued edging, padding, planting, mixing the soil, pulling out the weeds and spreading limestone throughout the garden.  Grandad Barney was really helpful by allowing the students to access the 'limestone mountain' with ease, by taking down the fence, plus he gave them strawberry plants to put in their garden. They also received several flowers and herbs from Helen. Thank you Helen and Grandad Barney!  The garden is looking much healthier. With a little bit more hard work from the Juniors and of course a little help from mother nature, the garden will soon be producing lots of healthy food to eat and look stunning. __An interview with a student: AJ__   How did you get involved with the garden? Everyone was working and I was the only one who didn’t have a job so I asked what I could do.  What is your main job? Shovelling the Limestone into the wheelbarrows.  What kind plants are you growing in the garden? <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive">Strawberries, sliver beet, curly parsleys, flowers, rhubarb, cauliflour and an orange tree. <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive"> <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive">What could you improve on in the garden? <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive">The dirt needs to be soft and crumbly not lumpy.
