A Poly Tunnel is long polythene-covered frame under which seedlings or other plants are grown outdoors. The Science Bit: the interior heats up because incoming solar radiation from the sun warms plants, soil, and other things inside the building faster than heat can escape the structure. It will allow the allotment to increase the variety of and length of time we can crops grown. Many thanks to Mrs.Selby, Mr.Waring, Mr.Leventhall, Mrs.Cohen, Miss.Thomas and especially our expert volunteers, Mark and Richard from Incredible Edibles (Whitefield), for their time and experience. Please see the photos below of the amazing veg and herbs growing over the summer. We look forward to more activities and volunteering when we're all back on campus in two weeks. The allotment continues to grow under the keen eyes of Mrs.Selby and Mr.Waring - especially our first radishes. Many thanks to the army of regular volunteers each lunchtime and the enthusiasm of all on campus. Still lots to do and ambitions to realise.  Mrs.Selby and Mr.Waring confirm that yesterday afternoon 5 tonnes of fragrant soil was delivered.
The allotment is springing forward with the full involvement of our Nursery kids, Primary pupils, and Secondary students - we are 'growing'! So far seeds have been sown - parsley to courgettes, beans to radishes, beets to nasturtium and so much more! The sees pots are sheltering in classrooms and inside our colourful tyre beds. Can you help? At this point you are probably clearing out for spring; we shall be happy to take anything useful off your hands:

Many congratulations, Lucy. Printed below is the individual feedback for Lucy from Dr Llop The short story by this author is very good. Their idea of creating a short story for an already existing book is very original and fits in nicely in the narrative of the book. The author’s command of the grammar of the Spanish language is sound and they manage to create a story that combines both past and present tenses in a very accurate way, as well as it includes a wide range of narrative strategies. As for the review, the author does an in-depth analysis of both the content, the main topics, the characters and the narrative. Their comprehensive knowledge and the interpretive approach to the topic in its broader context (i.e. the links of the reality presented in the film and the Spanish socio-cultural context) are also remarkable. The author manages to make the reader want to watch the film with their moving but still very academic and precise writing style. |
