Tuesday 2nd June

Today, we continued developing our outdoor learning site and made great progress together.

The excitement began on the minibus journey, where the children discussed with their friends’ which jobs they would like to take on once we arrived. Their enthusiasm and sense of responsibility were clear before we had even reached the site.

As soon as we arrived, we quickly got busy, working together in smaller groups to complete a variety of exciting activities. Some children planted radishes and green beans, helping to expand our growing area and learning about the care and patience needed to grow food. Others worked hard building new vegetable beds, creating additional space for future planting projects.

We also began clearing and preparing an area for our exciting new mud kitchen. This project is being planned and developed by the wonderful volunteers at Pathhead in consultation with the children who have enjoyed choosing the design and visiting the workshop for updates.

It was fantastic to see everyone working together, showing teamwork, determination, and enthusiasm throughout the day. The outdoor learning site continues to grow and evolve, and we are looking forward to seeing our plants flourish and our new mud kitchen take shape in the coming weeks.
