Well, that unexpected May half-term heatwave certainly gave our garden a test! ☀️🔥

We’re happy to report that everything survived... and some plants seem to have enjoyed it a little too much! 🌱😄

And just look at the harvest already! 🍓🥬🌿 We might need bigger baskets at this rate!

Back in March, we created a mini meadow at Merryhills Primary using seeds from .co.uk. We probably sowed it a little too densely, but the results speak for themselves: beautiful blooms in a space of less than one square metre, enjoying today's rain. 🌼🌿

After the unusual half term, we were delighted to find everything thriving! 🌿
Today, Y4 Lavender Class learned how to create beds using the no-dig method, made lavender bags, and arranged beautiful bouquets. A fantastic day of learning and creativity! 💜✨

Children are the best inventors 🌱✨

Watering with a normal watering can was simply too boring… so they created their own “watering can” instead!

I had only brought in a pine cone to show the children, but one little boy had a different idea. He added a stick and turned it into a beautiful rose 🌹🍂

Their imagination never stops amazing me 💛
