This term in garden we finally got our chickens. Every Wednesday we check for any eggs.ÌýSometimes we cook in the kitchen. In term 1 we cooked apple cinnamon muffins and in term 2 we cooked lemon and rhubarb cookies.ÌýWe finished the term 2 off by having hot chocolates. We went into 7 days lockdown. We work together as a team. I named my chicken Dani Junior.ÌýÌý

My experience in the garden for term two was the best because I have felt like I have really connected with the girls in the program. They are fun, exciting but I love spending time with Lisa and Karen because they care for us, and they know that we need time for ourselves. They understand and it has made me feel great about this term. The best experience this term was getting the chickens because they make me feel calm and happy when I feel overwhelmed. For Mother’s Day we made bunny flowerpots for our mums.Ìý

This term in the garden we finally got our chickens. We got a new boot brush next to the door to wipe our shoes when we come inside. This term was a good term in the garden because we got a lot of jobs done. We always work together as a team. We finished the term off by ordering Hot chocolates from Soft Café and drank them in the garden room. We got to cook Lemon and Rhubarb cookies in the food tech kitchen.ÌýÌý
