Thank you, worms!

The proceeds from recent worm liquid sales have been counted (thanks to Room 12's Kikorangi maths group) and the total is $176. 

Well done, Greenhithe School worms! 

We have used some of the money to buy items to help our vegetable gardens grow:

- trowels for the children to use
- garden lime to increase soil pH and help plants take up nutrients from the soil
- flower bulbs 
- rainbow carrot seeds
- beetroot seeds
- Impatiens seedlings and a plant called Platycodon for a hanging basket outside Room 12
- pea straw mulch to stop the garden drying out
- new hose fittings (better quality this time - the last ones broke!)


Quinn, Fletcher and Jackson proudly display some of the garden goodies
