Lottie. They would be in a frame (certificates I mean ;D) for all to see if they were mine. Lovely. Lorna.

;D Well done Lottie, very nice  :) You said the other day that you were taking garden club kids to allotment, do you have a place indoors where you all gather cos if you do I would take pic of onions & frame it then frame certificates & create a wall where you all display achievements  ;D adults & kids of course, it gives them (kids) such a boost to see it on display.  ;D ;D

Yes, I did, Marley. I was dreading it, but it was wonderful!!! 20 kids (and headteacher!!!), they were all a bit jittery at first, but after 10 mins or so they were eating tayberrries, raw broad beans from the pod, digging a bag of pots for my mum and generally having a blast!!! Some had never tried raw beans etc, and they're gong to get parents to let them have a bit of garden!! I'd post pic, but don't like to of other peeps children. Nice idea about frames in shed, but that's where I keep all tools so wouldn't let them in!!  Lottie :)

Lottie, as a Scunthorpe born lad I've seen football club trophy cabinets that have less winners medals.  Well done!  Lance  ;)

Thanks you, Lance!! Still got big grin! Lottie  ;D ;D ;D

:) Lottie, you're a star,  ;D ;D ;D  those kids are really lucky, it's great to be able to show kids nature & for them to enjoy it, not be afraid to try. I f you went with the headteacher then I take it all from same school, why not ask if there is a wall in school somewhere that you could have for gardening club to display pictures & things to do with their growing experiences, progress report etc & of course certificates or copies of certificates perhaps?? It's a shame but entirely understand & agree about photos. If you had a wall it might help to encourage the parents too, to see their kids progress on display.  ??? Just a thought.  :)
