Planting
Herbs and Flowers
By
Togher N.S. Infants May 2000
We are having a school Fayre on Sunday the 11th
of June. We decided we will have
one stand for selling herbs and flowers. We
spent an evening planting the herbs and flowers. We hope to sell them and make some money for our school
extension, which will start soon.
Siobhan helped us with the planting.
She is with us for a week on work experience.
Mrs Keane found two snails in the old black pots.
Séan decided to hold them and take them on display to all the
classrooms.
Most of the children didn’t like them.
They peeped out to look at us. When
they saw us they decided to hide again.
They kept making slime for us. Séan
then placed them back to where they had found them.
We planted lettuce, parsley, thyme and nastursiums in black
trays. We then placed them on
the window sills where we are watching them grow.
We covered them with cling film. After
two weeks the seeds were ready to transplant.
We have to give them some water.
Our lettuce.
