Yay! Another potato photo to see! This time Samuel has sent us a photo of his potato. What do you think?

This poem was written by Rose about her cat, Monty.

Well, as promised, James has emailed us a photo of his potato plant. He says that it is about 8.5 cm tall. How tall is yours?

Well now Jacob’s gotten into the act and has sent me a picture of his potato growing. What do you think, is it better looking than mine?

James has also sent a message saying that his potato plant is 8.5 cms high at the moment. He’s going to try and get a photo for us to see

Well, it looks like Gem thinks she’s found something interesting!

Yes, it’s Miss Crosby’s Spud in a Bucket, finally showing some green! I was beginning to think that I’d killed it from the start. Hopefully, it’ll like its new home by the back door in the warm spring sunlight. It’s definitely one of my favourite spots!

Hopefully your potato is growing well also, though not as well as mine

We had our Junior Athletics at school today – a wonderful warm Canterbury day, though unfortunately a couple of us forgot our sunblock and ended up a little pink!

Here are some more photos of the children.
