National Gardening Week SUNDAY



Deck Chair – a word we all know!  Do you have one?  Today’s word is easy to remember but important none the less!  It allows us to slow down, take a minute, rest and reflect.  We can use it to relax between jobs or just sit out to read a book, skype with a friend, or listen to the birds and other sounds in our garden.  Just like other tools, we keep some deckchairs in the shed at school.  We look after them by putting them away out of the weather and then they look after us when we sit and get rested in them.  We have several so folk can chat with a snack too!

Did you know:
John Cham submitted a patent design in 1855 for simple, wooden folding chairs with comfortable woven backs.  They soon became a regular fixture on decks of cruise liners, and so were given the name 'deck chairs'


Enjoy the rest of your weekend and see you next week in our TEAMs meeting!
