SEN learners growing their own in the college allotment!

Must remember for next year: look into planting crops that are ready to harvest in term times. Lots of beans and no students to eat them!

Oof I forgot about this account! Looks like the sun has come out just in time for tomorrow's visit to #RHSTatton :D

Had a really inspiring Twilight Training from the @Schools_RHS northwest this afternoon. Such a great scheme.

@seedaholic just received an order of seeds from you, really impressed - thank you :) :)

[National Wildlife Federation @NWF]

Have you thought about making your yard into a wildlife habitat? http://t.co/ZuP9fLth

[growaquinas @growaquinas]

Just received the seeds I ordered from http://t.co/YkmeJyTB .. They're so well presented!

Just been with the students to watch a tree trunk being carved into an owl at Cale Green Park. Fascinating stuff.

@Schools_RHS Still waiting on a reply from the e-mail I sent about being unable to register!

@RSPB_Learning Hoping to get involved in the near future!

Had a lettuce fresh from outside with our chilli wraps today. Yum yum yum.

[growaquinas @growaquinas]

Found a young starling in our courtyard today. Been had by a cat. :(
We gave it a nice send off though.

The @RSPB_Learning have got a great scheme for getting learners outdoors, with their Wildlife Action Awards. http://t.co/SSgNXNkC

..doesn't help that may ID skills leave a lot to be desired!

[growaquinas @growaquinas]

Also wondering if they were even sprouts at all. I think we may have been a bit casual with the labelling..

[growaquinas @growaquinas]

Today we pulled up our sprouts that had bolted in the heat :(. I'm wondering now if I should have left them in to collect the seeds!

[growaquinas @growaquinas]

@RSPB_Learning this looks really interesting!

[growaquinas @growaquinas]

About to go fetch a load of soil sourced from freecycle. Finally get to sort out the pumpkin patch!
