NEW LEAF LEARNING

I have been teaching children with Special Needs for 25 years until 2010. Having run New Leaf Salads for a year I realised there was something missing. I now have student Adults with learning difficulties working with me in the New Leaf Salad garden. It is like a classroom without walls - it works well for all of us.
 
New Leaf Learning encourages a respect for others in all that we do. My students and learners are involved in every aspect of the business including dealing with clients, counting money and taking orders.
 
The work includes
Sowing seeds
Pricking out small plants
Spreading compost
Fleecing beds
Weeding
Picking leaves
Washing leaves
Weighing and packing leaves
Labelling bags
 
We work on literacy and numeracy skills in all we do and I will support areas of need.
 
The students will learn about
How plants grow
Soil preparation
The variety of salad plants
The effects of weather on plants
The seasons
Working with clients
Running a small business
Teamwork
