Grow Your Own Lunch Local Businesses, Community, Information & Support 5

And dinner…and breakfast…an edible garden outside your backdoor may be your ideal but it can seem like a major challenge with today’s busy family lifestyles. If you’ve never grown anything before what on earth do you make of being told to ‘prick out seedlings when ready’ and ‘sow successionally’? Marie Shallcross is a qualified gardening teacher who will turn your garden into your classroom and guide you through the process of seed to table. Lessons follow a core structure but are then personalised to suit your needs and experience level, and your garden. Lessons are a blend of theory – why something needs to be done - and practical – how to do it. Hand-outs are supplied we and provide support after each lesson to answer those questions that you forgot to ask at the time! There’s ‘homework’ too; which could be buying the correct sized and shaped secateurs, sowing seeds without Marie’s help or even writing up some notes. For more experienced gardeners who perhaps have not grown fruit and vegetables before, Marie can teach at your knowledge level as the lessons are personalised. Perhaps you have been a ‘grow your own’ person but now time is your enemy? Marie can show you how to develop and grow an easy maintenance edible garden. We are able to design, landscape and teach edible gardening for you to enjoy. Having a feast of food can be fun! Check out our website for details of our gardening lessons; Plews Potting Shed gardening blogs and all our services. ©PlewsGardenDesign

Strawberries benefit from straw, matting, newspaper or membrane around their base to help keep the berries clean from rain and mud splashes. But remember this also gives the slugs somewhere to hide. There’s still time to sow seeds of runner beans, peas, and squash if you haven’t done already. If you’ve got seedlings growing apace, then sow another lot, this will spread out your harvest and give you a backup should slugs chomp their way through your first sown crop.

To help keep your tomatoes watered, cut the bottoms off plastic bottles. Remove the cap and plant cap end down next to your tomatoes; when you come to water, pour the water into the bottle. This ensures water gets to the roots where it’s needed; and also means you’re not constantly watering as the bottle also www.bromleyfamilygrapevine.co.uk works as a reservoir.

t Bromley High Junior School we provide a secure and happy environment enabling all to reach their true potential as well as enjoying their time in school. Through a broad and balanced curriculum the girls are offered a wealth of experiences and opportunities to support their learning journey. They are encouraged to develop resilience, inquisitiveness and tenacity to enable them to deal with our changing world. Our expert teachers design a curriculum that encourages the girls to take risks with their learning and to welcome new opportunities and experiences. We achieve high standards by providing specialist teaching and facilities in many areas including music, sport, science, IT and languages, which add an international dimension to the girls’ learning and an awareness of different cultures. Creativity plays a key part in each girl’s day. Girls may find themselves using Euros to buy a croissant at a French market held in our hall or joining a Flamenco Dance workshop. They may present their ideas on becoming a House Captain or design and build their own rocket after asking the experts at NASA for tips during a video conference. Physical Education plays an important and integral part in the lives of the Junior School girls. Our sports teams have built up a fine reputation and enjoy success both locally and nationally. We believe in preparing girls for the challenges beyond school and value the importance of a holistic approach. The school provides many varied opportunities within a vibrant cocurricular programme including sporting, musical, dramatic and other creative activities. We make the most of our beautiful school grounds to provide opportunities for outdoor learning, in which our Forest School is a vital part. Self-confidence and independence are increased through freedom, time and space to learn. Being an all-through School, educating girls from childhood to adulthood brings many benefits. One School means one choice for parents as their daughters reach four years old. After that the girls’ educational, emotional and social progress is tracked and developed until they leave us for University, having formed long, lasting relationships. You would be very welcome to visit the Junior School at any time, and I look forward to meeting you. Please contact the school via our website: www.bromleyhigh. gdst.net; admissions@bro.gdst.net or Tel 020 8781 7000 to arrange a visit. Twitter @bromleyhs

“We would recommend Trinity from seeing how well our son has settled in, the friends he has made, the opportunities he's already had and how very happy he is. He even gets on with his homework without much argument!” These words by a new parent give a feel for what attracts families from a wide area to Trinity School. Its strong academic results regularly place it among the top schools in the country. Music at Trinity is truly exceptional and the School has an outstanding reputation for sporting excellence. But there is much more to Trinity than purely academic, musical or sporting success! Please come and experience for yourself what makes a Trinity education so special.
