100k in May - for Mrs Markwick's Y1 Botanists!
I'm Mrs Markwick and I teach Year One at St Thomas' Primary School in Lydiate. I am running 3K a day in May. Any sponsorship I receive for this will be used to purchase raised bedding and the necessary resources for the outdoor area in the class I teach.
During lockdown, my family and I have enjoyed experimenting growing our own food including sweetcorn, peas, lettuce and tomatoes as our garden became such a focal point of our daily lives. My windowsills are currently full of this year's plants shielding from the cold! Watching my children's faces each day as the plants grow a little taller brings back such fond memories of picking peas in my grandparent's garden and I would love to bring the awe and wonder of gardening to our outdoor provision in Year One.
Thank you for any donations or for spreading the word about this fund raiser!
