Green fingers Gang - harvest kohlrabi, cabbage and broccoli

The Greenfingers Gang - Thursdays at 1:45 - All Welcome

Every Thursday, kids keen on gardening are welcome to join The Greenfingers Gang. We meet Mrs Daniel in the Edible Gardens after lunch eating. It's great fun!

Today we weeded the strawberry patch, spread compost and harvested carrots to eat.

I wonder what we'll do next week...

Greenfingers Gang - tending to our orchard and edible garden every Thursday lunchtime - all welcome.

Home School Partnership:

If families would like to contribute raw fruit and vege scraps to the compost bins in the edible garden that would be awesome.

Are you a keen gardener? Mrs Daniel would love help in the Edible Garden. Please share your expertise. Email christined@sunnyhills.school.nz if you can spare some time.

Flowers for bees & garden to table

We're having a delicious time in the edible garden; watching the bees bumble about the early spring flowers, picking winter veges and creating crunchy stir fries.

What's your favourite carrots, broccoli or sugar snap peas?

Greenfingers Gang - capsicum harvest - thanks Mother Earth

 The capsicum plants Mother Earth donated in spring are still going strong for our Matariki middle of winter harvest. Wow! Just as well too, because our kumaras need more time.

Morgan is also tending to seedlings we've grown from the capsicum seeds, so there'll be many more to come.
