Planting pumpkin and tomato with the afternoon children, you're never too young to start gardening!

Opal and Angus were keen to plant the pumpkin, together they dug the hole and then Angus used his feet to firm the ground around it. "We've given it soil for food and a home, what else does it need?" "Water " said Angus and he went to look for the hose.

 

Then it was Ben's turn to tease out the roots on the tomato seedling before he planted it, thank you to Emily's mum, Megan, for bringing the plant in.

Kia ora ma tou awhina /thank you for helping, Angus, Opal and Ben. We will watch the plants grow, how will we care for them?
