Phase Two

Our latest enthusiastic gardening student has left us for pastures new - a quick turnover's an occupational hazard with a tier 1 E2E provision - and it seems like a good time to stop making the less enthusiastic ones take part in planting, digging and weeding.

Alongside that tho' we're bringing in a new qualification which most, if not all, of our students will be expected to take. Two of the modules, Making the Most of Your Leisure Time and Healthy Living, can easily incorporate a gardening/garden produce element so the changes we've managed to make in the garden will continue to benefit future students.

We have a little of the YOF cash left so we're ordering some onion sets - I have visions of steaming bowls of French Onion Soup for the students we have over the winter - and a few windchimes to counteract the constant rattle of the nearby trains and drone of the railway announcements.
