Destructive Play

Smash it, bang it, whack it, break it...

For sometime now we have been storing alot of  old broken eqipment in our sheds. Needing the room for other items two older boys helped to set up an area so that other children could take their frustration out on the equipment.

Before we started destroying everything children were given a briefing regarding safety measures. Each child wanting to smash something was allocated safety goggles and gloves. They then got to choose what tool they wished to use from sledge hammers, small hammers and screw drivers.

 This play action attracted more children but we soon ran out of items to smash! 

Carrots & Greens

Phew, Spring is finally here! 

So this means only one thing ...lets start to plant this years vegetable garden! We have given the club a name this year 'Carrots & Greens' Garden Club and lots of children have already signed up to help.

Our plan is to do gardening every Thursday and the first Saturday of every month. This will hopefully mean we will get lots planted this year and have a bumper crop of goodies

.

We started by planting lettuces and carrot seeds in rows and preparing the soil for the further seeds we have planted inside the play hut. Once they have germinated we will plant them out in the other beds too.
