A special dance for eucalyptus nitens A stand of Eucalyptus nitens has been planted for our woodlot.	Summer splendour in the children's garden A stunning mix of flowers and vegetables. Our children designed these two garden plots - one for the seniors and one for the juniors, complete with wood chip paths. The children plant out this garden each Spring and tend it every Friday afternoon (weather permitting).
Potting shed Our old sports shed has been renovated and is now our garden potting shed. With funding gratefully received from the World Wildlife Fund we were able to rebuild the shed and purchase garden tools, plants and potting mix. Our children really love working in the potting shed; sowing seeds, potting seedlings up or gathering seeds from collected plants.	Sowing seeds in early Spring Our children follow the seasons with activities in their gardens: Spring is for planting and keeping the birds off the seeds - Our scarecrows did a great job! Summer for tending the gardens - weeding and watering The Autumn Harvest is an exciting time - there's potatoes to dig and eat, the cranberries are highly prized, and making calendula cream from summer flowers is fun - and of course, the cream is great for gardeners' hands. Autumn and Winter is tidy up time in the gardens, composting, weeding and seed collection.
Autumn Harvest A wide variety of potato crops were planted in our vegetable garden, including several Maori varities - delicious and sweet.
