So much to write about, so little time to write.

As usual I must begin with an apology for lack of updates, we've been uber busy since the arrivar of the soil.

We decided that we actually are going to enter this competition, which means that we ahve to type out sooooooo much stuff, (on the first night I did like 3000 words.) So that's why we've not been around.

In other news, it's Midterm, but despite this, we intend to meet up today, to get the project sorted. I think it shows how dedicated we are to the project that each one of us (except one girl who's away for the week and obviously cannot attend) is going to be at this meeting today. A basic plan has been drawn up for what we need to do.

• Write up a contents page and make it pretty. However, we first need to establish the set up of our little folder. Plan A!
• Write up a bibliographyof all the websites we used - thats kinda essential appartently
• Decide on a date to meet Mr. gleeson and decide what to wear ;)  
• Establish that i was kidding on the last one
• Work collectively on the "future of the garden" section and try to meet two pages at least.  
• Eat cake and be happy :D

 Which I think are very easy things to do. We're all meeting at three at a secret location. :3
An update on what happens at the meeting will be posted later.

The soil arrived!

 A quick revision. The previous suppliers were very unprofesional and  we ordered the soil from another source. It was more expensive but they took it seriously.

When we heard Mr.Gleeson saying 'The lorry is here everyone stood up, grabbed their shovels and run out :) It was a lot of hard work. The box looks great!It took us a few hours to get everything finished and clean. Nicole made up a game using the rocks we took out of the soil. It is called 'Kabooshka' :) Here are some pictures showing the amazing work we did.

Dear Soil Providers,

Next time you agree to bring something, at a certain time, on a certain date. You should do it.

So, Friday we were supposed to have the dirt delivered to fill in the box. But it didn't arrive. Wanna know why? Because the truck broke down....on Monday. So we were all in school, dressed in our "farmer" clothes, and it hits twenty five past one (Soil was due to be delivered at half one) and Charlotte suggested we ring, just to find out when he would be arriving.

It wouldnt. Because this idiot of a man cant do his job. I mean, you could have rang us before, so we didnt stay late in school, we do have other things to do afterwards like.

So everythings been called off for a week. We have to lug all of our spades back into school next week.

I hate when people dont do what they say they will (me included.)

Well, that's me out kids, talk to you all soon.

Our beautiful box....

Our Monster Box is looking great. Erica and Nicole took  care of the plastic and it's going to be filled with soil this friday! We have 5 tonnes of soil, which will need to be put into the box. I t will probably take us a few hours, but I can't wait to start!!!

We also had a meeting after school and we really need a few amazing, extraordinary ideas for the awarness campain.
            See you soon,

Dont double dip. (Now there's Alliteration Mr Gleeson.

Pictures from the Monster Box painting session today. In which we put on that "lick ah paint" I mentioned the other day.

The dirt is to be ordered on Thursday, and then there shall be pictures of the box filling thing on Friday evening.

I have news.

So, after what seems like an eternity of pure silence. We are back.
We would have been a week ago, but due to unforseen circumstances we weren't.

The big news is. The box is almost finished. It needs a "lick ah paint" and then we're filling it with dirt on Friday. Which I am actually ridic excited for. I quite like dirt.

So, really that's all the news for now. I assume there will be pictures of the box filling ceremony. Though how it's a ceremony I dont understand. But there shall be pictures.

Stay where you are for more news my dears. :)

-Katie

Okay, sorry.

I'm so so so so so so so so sorry there's been nothing in forever.

We've had so much on.
I think when we last spoke the monster box was up. Well since then, not much has happened, there was a whole lot of snow, so we were off school for almost two weeks, and then we had a Business project to do, so this has been on the back burner for a while.

And what with Christmas being next week, little will happen between now and then.

But I promise you, come the new year, we'll get this back up and running.

Love you all.
-Katie.
