We are sad that this is going to be our final post for this academic year, but we are very excited that we can reveal to you that last weeks Year 9 activity week Restaurant Challenge 2022 went AMAZINGLY

All students thoroughly enjoyed their time completing each task, it was so difficult for us to select a winning team.

These are our winners:

WINNERS OF RESTAURANT CHALLENGE DAY 1-2022: ‘Downtown Dinner’

WINNERS OF RESTAURANT CHALLENGE DAY 2-2022: ‘Rapid a Chic’

Here are some images from the two days events!

Here is a summary of DAY 1 competitors:

This is the DAY 2 summary:

Before we leave you,

here is a selection of final roof garden photographs!

We are sad to say goodbye, but only until next term!

HAVE A GREAT SUMMER BREAK EVERYONE! SEE YOU ALL IN SEPTEMBER!

We thought we would try and get one last cheeky grow in from the Urban Cultivator before the end of term.

This time we kept it simple and went for an easy Cress and an intermediate Pea Shoot. Below is our progress since last Friday! The Cress has gone wild already!

All of the produce that is grown this week will be used for our year 9 activities week ‘Restaurant Challenge’ competition as garnish.

Another exciting update to share with you is that our peas on the roof garden are finally ready for picking!

The Apples have come a long way too!

All of the produce we have collected over this week and last week will be used as ingredients in the year 9 Restaurant challenge and we are so excited about that.

We cannot wait to share with you next week how the activity week went for us!

I always look forward to seeing what the Carrots look like as we pull them from the ground! So far we haven’t had a single straight and long Carrot. It truly makes you wonder how much the supermarkets are disposing of when we haven’t had one single ‘normal’ Carrot yet?!

Stay tuned next week for our second-to-last Growing Green blog update.
