Hi gardening play groupers! Hot day 38c forecast for tomorrow - it'll be between 28 - 33 between 10am and 12pm. I propose a shortish session in the garden from 10am and we'll do water based play and sprinkler. Please wear clothes to get wet and muddy and towels/change of clothes. I'll put up the extra shade. Please let me know if you'd prefer to give it a miss so I have an idea how many people to expect :-) x mon

In the garden today - we admired the renovated pallet mud kitchen Rachel made last week, tasted the ripe and juicy peach grown in our own tree, Helen cleaned the cubby house, all enjoyed magic purple beans, beautiful stand of sunflowers and yummy ripe red strawberries
