I was out at Little Treasures Nursery in North Lanarkshire a few weeks ago looking at some good practice in ICT that was going on in this wonderful learning environment.
During my visit I couldn’t help but notice the greenhouse that the staff, children and parents had built.
From a distance you might think it looked a bit flimsy….
But when you got close up and finally inside you could see that it had been constructed by hundreds of recycled plastic bottles. The children were able to describe in detail to me how they had built it and also what they were growing inside.
Hopefully, I’ll be invited back when all the vegetables have grown a little bit more!












Wonderful - bit concerned about the idea of coming back later to nick their veggies.

You definitely did a great job on your greenhouse! I am glad that you chose plastic bottles for it!
