School Garden

An 'award winning' school garden does not just 'spring up over night' and while the labours of all those involved are usually seen in the late Spring to early Summer the work is year round.

Recently the girls in Mr. Whelan's class have rolled their sleeves up and done a lot of the 'donkey work' outside under Ms. Mullin's direction. Meantime, in doors, Ms. Dempsey's class were planting loads of herbs that will be a great addition to the vegetables already planted outside.

Over the holidays, the men from the SEFRC are due to deliver 'vegetable boxes' that will allow our green fingered pupils plant an even greater selection of plants. Roll on 'harvest time.'
