The Great Potato Project

The time had finally come to dig up our potatoes!  We worked with the students in Room 7 and 8 to plant these last term and they have been growing like mad since then!  We were amazed at how many potatoes we had, and some of them were huge.  Some people won prizes (sponsored by Bunnings) for:

  • heaviest - DeQuante and Carter (98g)
  • weirdest shape - Cody and Tristan
  • most potatoes - Jade and Olivia (25)
  • spot prize - Logan and Jett

The best part about growing these potatoes was that we got to eat them for lunch!  Delicious!

  2. Well done. I think we had over 300 potatos! Also fresh potatos taste much better than buying them from the shop. I hope everyone enjoyed it.

  8. It was fun growing the potatoes over the pass few months. It was interesting when we dug them out because we wanted to see how many we grew, if we grew the biggest one or if we had the weirdest shape. Well done to everyone who won a prize from Bunnings.
