School Farm: Canal View and Sighthill Primary End Of Term Update

October 12, 2023

With the first term of the school year over, here’s a little peak at what our Canal View and Sighthill Primary School Farmers have been up to!

Canal View Primary

This term, Canal View School Farm has been all about harvesting and bringing on young plants for the winter crops. P7s chatted lots about what they could cook with their harvest hauls, which included potatoes, tomatoes, onions, and salad leaves . They have also planted up their winter salad leaves in the polytunnel.

Meanwhile the P6s picked raspberries and beans, and cooked up their sweetcorn. They have also started mulching the beds as they clear them.

 

Sighthill Primary 

Over at Sighthill Primary, pupils have been harvesting their crops and collecting seeds. They also enjoyed an apple tasting session (everyone agreed that the best apple was from the School Farm!) They were also delighted to win 3rd prize for their vegetable monster at the FEDEGA vegetable show.
