Growing a Vegetable Garden continued…

Way back in January the K1.1 students of Ms Joanne Galea and K2.1 students of Ms Nagaat Bugeja embarked on a interesting project, that of growing a vegetable garden in the school’s front garden. Click here to see phase 1 of this project.

The students enjoyed harvesting their crops. Peas have grown strongly in their pods and students enjoyed popping the pods for a wonderful surprise. Potatoes where unearthed using a hoe with the help of their Kindergarten Assistants. Students learn by doing 🙂

Growing a Vegetable Garden

The Kinder 1.1 students of Ms Joanne Galea, embarked on a very interesting project to promote healthy eating, while learning about growing of crops. These little gardeners have started a vegetable garden on the school premises. The students sowed potatoes, carrots and peas. 

The students shall be watering the seeds and roots while keeping a close eye on their project to ensure that their crops grow. Not only did the students have to plant the seeds/roots, but they will also be learning what it entails to harvest crops and the care that needs to be taken with crops.

We look forward to have a vegetable soup made from crops grown in the school garden 🙂
