Apples and Quinces

Starting again!

Next week (Wednesday 12:00) we start up our Garden Club after a little summer break.

First a quick review the last few month's achievements, since starting Wednesday Garden Club in May:

We've planted potatoes, salad stuff, curly Kale, beans, courgettes, we've weeded up and supported the 'Kings Heath in bloom' event, we've had stories supported by Highbury Children's Centre, Bug hunts with OPAL WM, Butterflies with Butterly conservation trust, forest trail with forest school practitioner Claire Chapman,  run a Potato day, supported the stay & play group and eaten a lot of strawberries.  And finally cut down the Sycamores blocking out the light, breaking our fence and, if allowed to grow much more, would have caused damage to the Community Centre foundations.

Half way done

Let there be light!

We have a full timetable for coming months, weather dependent.  Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

Walk in the Park

Thanks Clare, for fairy fun, leaf kebabs and other forest shenanigans at Highbury Park.

Blueberries and Balloons

Our kids have developed a taste for sushi!  Following an extended lunch, we took the balloons out to release them in the garden.  And pick blueberries.

Herman the Junk Sea Monster

Thanks to Sioban and Ali bringing in materials and helping to make Herman during stay and play.

Just one last touch...

13th July Bubbles, Stories and Songs

Picked more strawberries in the garden, made bubbles, storytime and songs!

6th July Butterflies, beans and stories

Thanks to Nick Williams from Butterfly Conservation for running a workshop outdoors on butterflies and bugs.  We also did some painting, planting beans and stories thanks to Jazz and Lisa from the Highbury Children's Centre:
