HillaryLearning about being organised in the garden.Yesterday Hillary class went to the garden and we planted some plants. They are celery, peas and beans. We used the sticks for the beans to climb up, so the plants can grow. The compost helps the plants to grow and the plants will grow. Mario and Nathan Yesterday me and Haukawarua went to the garden. I got worm wee in a cup and I put wee on the plants. I shuffled the dirt with a fork. Thomas and Haukawarua Today me and Kayla went to the garden. We put worm wee on the plants and then we went back to the classroom. We wrote a story about plants. Kayla and Grace Me and Stanley went to the garden and we checked the garden. The plants got watered and it was fun. Aaron and Stanley Today, this afternoon Hillary class went to the garden. We saw a skink. It was brown and it was fast. Also, it was camouflaged with our garden. We got to put worm wee on the plants. Then we came back to Hillary class to write a story about the garden for five minutes. The buddy I was with was Ibanez. Rayma and Ibanez Hillary went to the garden and we saw a gecko and we had some worm pee. We went to the garden and we put worm wee on the plants, so they can grow. It made me feel happy.
