The weather was okay; there was light rain when we went to the garden, but then it cleared up and there was even a few minutes of sun. It was not very cold.
We got changed into our gardening kit, then listened to the SECURITY instructions.
We must not forget our gardening hats!
Two pupils from La Source were working hard on cleaning their old plot with the help of two adults.
The rhubarb we planted last time did not look very healthy...
We picked up more litter from our plot; lots of little pieces of plastic and metal and paper keep popping up out of the soil!
We had to measure our plot again (make it smaller) because the pupils from La Source had moved their plot to half of the MOONY TROOP part of the garden!
We dug a shallow trench along the edge of our plot and transplanted five rosemary bushes along the trench to start a hedge (we will add lavender bushes soon).

We drew half a big circle on the edge of our plot, in between our plot and MOONY TROOP'S plot.
The SUNNY TEAM + MOONY TROOP plots together will make up a "sun and moon" garden.
How we drew the semicircle...
We will put plants around our half of the circle: tall ones (maybe a quince tree or a cherry tree?), medium-sized ones (like rose bushes), and small ones (lots of different yellow and red flowers).
Will the center of the "sun & moon" garden look like this?!
We will plant a cosy grass lawn on the circle.
The circle will symbolize both the sun and the moon; it will be a place to sit and talk and draw and dream! We will put a lovely wooden bench on it.
Next time, we will transplant (again) the rhubarb plants (if they are still alive!).
We must not forget to clean and put away the tools next time!
Next time, we will plant bulbs and bushes.
