Bagel bird feeders made today!

Hi all,
at gardening club today we have made bagel bird feeders.  Really easy to make  - here's how:

• cut bagel in half
• butter with loads of butter - the fat will keep the birds warm!
• put the bagel butter face down onto a plate of bird seed  mix.
• Put a piece of string through the bagel and hang up in your garden for the birds to enjoy.

We all got to bring a bagel bird feeder home and we put some around our school as well.  We hope to see more birds coming to our school now.  Making the bird feeders was really fun and we liked the way we could use left over food from the kitchen.

Today in gardening club we were cutting up the recycled bottles that everyone has brought in and we had a lot of fun doing this.  We are now ready to start putting some onto the timber frame of our greenhouse so watch this space over the next week or two and we will add photos of how we are getting on!
We have started to use our compost bin in Home Economics this term which we think is great!
We also ordered 30 native trees from the Woodland Trust to plant in our garden.

Hi all,

Welcome to the North Coast Integrated College, Coleraine, Gardening Club blog! We have started to make our greenhouse out of the recycled bottles that everyone has been bringing in. We will update you next week on how we are getting on.
