We added some eye-catching pupil-made signs to the garden today, and discovered a few parsnips in the process 😂! It is really time we harvested the last of those luscious looking leeks. A job for tomorrow 😊.
We had a lovely time in the spring sunshine on Monday as we gathered with friends and families of St Matthew's Academy to celebrate developments in outdoor learning this year ☀️ 🎉 🌻🪻🌼
We have exciting news! Our Gardening Club stars have been chosen as a winner in the Pocket Garden design competition! The competition is run by @KSBScotland in partnership with the Garden for Life Forum.
The challenge was to tell a story through a miniature garden design that uses edible plants and plants that attract wildlife, and to reuse something which would otherwise have been thrown away.
Watch this space as we build the garden, ready for the online showcase on the @KSBScotland website where the public can vote for their favourite from 13 June – 23 June! Find out more on their website: tinyurl.com/2bfcuvy2 #PocketGarden #EcoSchools
Our S6 @poweringfutures pupils did a brilliant job today presenting their challenge solutions to industry judges👌. Proud of all the progress you have made this year, both individually and in your teams ☺️👏.
Plant propagation - This week, S3 Personal Development pupils helped these little spiderettes to move on to a new phase of life in their very own pots 🥹.
Pupils impressed us with their teamwork, creative thinking and STEAM skills earlier this week as they braved the rain to take part in a "loose parts" outdoor learning session with Emma from Learning through Landscapes.

Today was all about sustainability in the garden ♻️. We sowed some "green manure" to help replace nutrients in the soil following our recent harvest, and to keep the the soil healthy over the winter months 💚.
Very impressive pumpkin carving at gardening club today, and plenty of seeds reserved for roasting to make a very tasty snack! 🎃 😋
Our S1 SSR parents enjoyed some Halloween themed literacy and numeracy activities today. @StMatthewsAc
S1 pupils did a fantastic job digging up the last lot of potatoes for 2024. What a great harvest we've had this year 😄🥔🎉. Thanks again to the volunteers at Fairlie community garden for giving us all those top quality seed potatoes back in May 🙏💚.
