Spuds in Tubs – Harvest & Potato Party 2018

Posted on June 21, 2018 by Deanne

Monday June 18th was “The Great Potato Harvest & Party of 2018!” All the primary students at South Slope gathered outside to harvest our potato crop together! You may remember, long, long ago (ha ha!)…. well, before Spring Break we planted our potatoes, since then we have watered, fertilized and EVEN sung to our potatoes as they grew.

The second big highlight of the day was when it was time to enjoy our Potato Sundaes!! Thank you to Ms Shuster for putting together this great video & to Mrs Fierro for picking up all our Potato Toppings!

We have the BEST Music teacher at South Slope! Not only is she busy preparing all of us for our school musical….but, she made time to help us sing to our Spuds in Tubs. I’m sure they grew 10cm as they heard us singing!

Spuds in Tubs – Harvest & Potato Party!!

Posted on June 22, 2017 by Deanne

Our Spuds in Tubs have been growing since March and we were finally were able to harvest them on Friday. The Primary classes met outside and dug our hands into the soil to harvest our potatoes! It was amazing to see how big some of the potatoes were this year. We found lots of bugs too! Mr Brown’s & Ms Cheung’s classes counted the potatoes — we harvested over 500 Spuds this year! Later in the day we cooked them and met as a group to make potato sundaes with butter, sour cream, cheese, salt & pepper. Yum!! Potatoes are soooooo good!
