“The Little Gardens are a fabulous resource to incorporate into your teaching and learning programme. We have loved learning about the different vegetables, herbs and pansy flowers. Researching the health benefits has made some of the students in my class realise how important eating vegetables are. We loved sharing our favourite vegetable recipe too. Some of the selection of vegetables and/or herbs such as borage were new to us so we enjoyed learning how we could use borage once they are fully grown. We are looking forward to maintaining our pledge to the vege and looking after our plants during the holidays. Excited to see what they bring back after the holidays.”
