My name is Jumuna Nenpane. I live in Plumstead. I work in Plumstead Day Nursery. We’re doing
a food growing project here in our nursery with different age groups of children. I think
it’s very important for children- they can learn where the food comes from, how we can
grow, and then they can learn how to do the planting things. It’d really important yeah!
I’m so happy to see all of you here today. In the Children Centre I’m so happy when
they learn something significant- like when they draw something, when they explore…
all these things… like this is my dad this is my mum. When they explore these things
I am really happy. And they are doing a lot today as well. When they are doing seeding,
planting, digging… yeah I love when children learn something significant skill. I go most
of the time in Greenwich Park, I take my children there, I love it. And most of the park I have
been there and I like. And I like the Green Chain walk as well. When I I’m free I go
there. Greenwich is a nice place. Wherever I walk I see all green area, plants, trees.
Still I notice we have to improve- my area needs to be improved as well. By planting
new trees, or fruit planting, those things. We are getting a lot of support as well. This
year I’m happy because the food growing project is here. We are getting the Royal
Borough and I have been there in firework time as well. Yet this is a great opportunity
isn’t it? Olympic we will be getting a lot of people
at that time. Well it’s just the Olympic Games isn’t it! It impacts on the economic
status as well doesn’t it? and we will get more tourist, and more earning area I don’t
know… Yeah I go for swimming, that’s it. And then
we play football in our own grove. I do dancing as well. That’s it, but not that much. I
do my gardening in my garden. My garden is not that much perfect. I brought soil today
… I brought soil also to Harry. You know I work five days here and today is just a
couple of hours and I go look the green area … I’m not that serious in my garden that’s
why I need more support. I got soil today I want to give it to Harry. Check it how it
is, what I need to plant. I got a little bit flowers and then I’ve got some typical-
it looks like spinach but it’s different- we can’t buy here. Like those things I grow
in my garden. From my childhood it’s my family my parents … ahh they never stopped
me to do anything. Whatever I want, or I want to do they support me all the time. And then
gardening is also a part of my life. I love watering plants looking them how big they
are. First of all seeding them. I want to say ‘when it is coming up?’ like this.
Everything is my family, my husband, my children, friends, family. That’s it.
