At our 6th floor garden, you can choose how you want it to be. You can get to know people while transplanting and chatting about common interests, but if you just want some peaceful time for yourself, there is also the space for that. After a long day of school, I often use the time to detach a bit while just enjoying the peacefulness of the gardening process, or else I really appreciate cathing up with the other members. 

After the first two terms, we got new members from grade 9, and it is really nice getting to know and connecting with new people outside of my year. It made me realise how many people we are at this school, and how little it takes to make new friends.
