Golf Skills

Move aside Tiger Woods.  M8 are learning golf skills with Matt and Amy from North Canty Sports.  We love the new equipment!

Lemonade Scones

M8 have been learning about measurement this term and also about how to write a procedure.  Today we made lemonade scones as a fun way to learn.

Making worm farms

Lesley from Mastaguard Education came to show us how to make a homemade wormfarm using ice-cream containers. 

The bottom container collects the worm wee.  This needs to be diluted 1-20 before using it on your garden.

The top container needs several holes in it, then line it with wet newspaper.  

Place scrunched up newspaper onto the wet paper for worms to snuggle in to breed.

Vermicast (worm poo) covers the paper - and the rotted down food.

Do not put cooked food or citrus but other food scraps are fine. Feed farm regularly.
