Hello, people out there! Today is Wednesday and I am sure the people who visit this blog would know what we do every Wednesday. That's right, so if you don't know every Wednesday, my class and some other classes do some CIP (Community Impact Projects). Meaning we do things to make the world or the community a better place. So today we planted some seeds and did some research.
The research was about what plants we could plant during autumn and winter. Our teacher Mr Mitchell had seeds and we had to list out the types of vegetable we were going to plant. So I remember he had many types of flower (cauliflowers?) and all of them were vegetables. After that, we went out and planted it in an egg carton our amazing teachers had so ever kindly given us many egg cartons.
So what we did first was put the soil in the carton, then we put a hole in the middle for the seed to go in. But I didn't get to do that since I had to go to my dance. In my opinion, this was a really good idea because we use vegetables to fundraise and help out the community.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 9 and in 2021 I will be a year 10. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

EW!
Hello people, it is Wednesday again so it is now time for Community Impact Projects. This time we are not going to the compost bin but we are doing some gardening. The gardening we are doing is to make our school a better place and also make the world a better place.
Today we were also gonna make plum jam! Except we were split into groups (2-3?), but the teachers didn't pick the groups, we had to literally pick between the groups ourselves. I chose to be in the research group. Where we would search up 6 different vegetables that we can plant in Autumn/Winter. The 6 vegetables I picked are:

- Onions
- Cauliflower
- Spinach
- Brussel Sprouts
- Broccoli
- Lettuce
After we did that we went and picked some of the rotten plums/plums that are on the ground from the garden. Though I wasn't there since I had Dance. We had to pick the plums because we want to make the school beautiful, it can also help the soil in the compost area.
