Our Flower Gardens

 

written by Patrick   Grade 4
 
I was part of the Garden Club last spring when I was in Grade 3.  I helped Mrs. Korolyk take the bags of dirt to the flower beds from the green house.  The bags were pretty heavy so we used a wheeler to move them.  We worked a lot!  I took the compost from our compost bin to the flower beds.  We worked up the soil.  We all planted flowers with Mrs. Korolyk and Mrs. Gergatz.  The flowers looked really nice over the summer.
 
 

A special thank you to Mrs. Marion Korolyk, Mrs. Ellen Gergatz, Mrs. Sarah Chapnick, the 2013 SSES Garden Club and the many volunteers who looked after our gardens over the summer ~ you created beautiful flower gardens to welcome everyone back to school!
