1. One day our teachers decided to create a eco-garden. So they wrote to our families to ask for help. And we worked all together: It was all hands on board! C.E.I.P. Narciso Alonso Cortés Valladolid - Spain

2. Itziar’s grandfather turned over the soil. He had to work very hard

3. Diego’s grandfather helped us to plant garlic.

4. Meanwhile we were preparing our seedlings. Once more our families helped us. Gerardo, Marta and Maria’s dad, became our green garden teacher

5. By now our seeds had grown and Gerardo taught us how to plant them.

6. We started to eat peas at break-time. They were delicious! And we picked our first harvest: lettuce

7. We had to do thousands of things: plant,dig,mix the compost, weed….

8. The best thing was watering the plants

9. Gerardo thought it was a good idea to make a herb garden, so we made a rockery with them.

10. He showed us how to tell the difference between the plants by smelling, touching and looking at them

11. In the end we had sage, camomile,mint and many more plants

12. As we had learned so much from Gerardo, we decided to prepare guided visits around the garden

13. We were so proud of our project that we organised an official inauguration. We invented a song for this occasion. We made formal speeches.

14. Gerardo uncovered the plaque

15. We cannot forget about Jake, our scarecrow.

16. Our eco-garden has been made possible because of the help from the families.
